Listen Later

What does the AMA advocate for? What does the AMA do? Is Medicare reducing payments to doctors? Are there telehealth exemptions in 2025? Todd Askew, senior vice president of advocacy at the American Medical Association, joins from the AMA State Advocacy Summit to outline the AMA’s top priorities for 2025. This includes reversing Medicare payment cuts, extending telehealth policies, fixing prior authorization issues to reduce administrative burdens for doctors, as well as continuing grassroots and physician engagement with elected officials to support key healthcare policies. AMA CXO Todd Unger hosts.
