Provider Relief Fund update
The
AMA has continued to press HHS to swiftly distribute funds to assist those
physicians who have not previously received any money from the Provider Relief
Fund. We are pleased the Department announced
it is moving forward to provide some relief. HHS expects to distribute approximately $15 billion to
eligible physicians and organizations that participate in state Medicaid and
CHIP programs and have not received a payment from the Provider Relief Fund
General Allocation. Starting June 10, HHS plans to launch a portal that will
allow eligible physicians and organizations to report their annual patient
revenue data and other necessary information to receive a payment equal to at
least 2 percent of reported gross revenues from patient care.
