Call Congress: Home Health Care Cuts

Congress is about to cut billions of dollars in funding for Medicare home health care services. Home health cuts and co-payments will have a devastating impact on millions of Americans, including some of the poorest and sickest Medicare beneficiaries. Such changes may also cause many patients to leave their homes and instead seek treatment in costly hospitals and nursing homes.

A Home Health Copayment:
  • Would Disproportionately Impact Poor and Sick Seniors
  • Would Shift Seniors to More Costly Settings
  • Would Increase Medicare and Medicaid Costs
  • Was Repealed by Congress in 1972 and Remains Unpopular Today 
Please Protect Seniors from a Home Health Copayment. Join the Partnership for Quality Home Healthcare and contact your U.S. Representative today.
