| On September 12, The Alliance for Site Neutral Payment Reform launched a new website (www.siteneutral.org) to better educate lawmakers, industry stakeholders, and the public about the many benefits of advancing site neutral payment reforms across America’s healthcare delivery system. The website houses research and other resources on the value of payment parity across sites of service and makes a compelling case for why Congress must protect and expand Section 603 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (BBA), which equalizes Medicare reimbursements across healthcare facilities.
The US Oncology Network is a founding member of the Alliance, which is a coalition of patient advocates, providers, payers and employers, who support payment parity across site of service in order to decrease Medicare and commercial spending, ensure patients receive the right care in the right setting, lower taxpayer and beneficiary costs, and increase patient access.
