As 2024 ends, the ACR’s Government Affairs Committee looks ahead to the 119th Congress to address key issues in rheumatology. For our second annual legislative and policy update, we’re joined by Dr. Lennie McDaniel, head of ACR’s Washington DC office, and Dr. Christina Downey, Chair of the Government Affairs Committee, to share insights from their ACR Convergence 2024 session. Topics include Medicare cuts, physician payments, pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), telemedicine reimbursement changes, and how you can advocate for better outcomes with the ACR.
