H.R. 1003 would not create any new restrictions in those areas. In fact, section 3(b) of the bill explicitly states that none of those practices or services would be affected by the bill. This means that we do not create any new limitations, and none of the practices and services you described would be prohibited or further restricted by this bill. I also want to make clear that this bill would not place any new restrictions on the provision of hospice care, which I strongly support.
