"Getting rid of the SGR not only resolved a vexing problem for lawmakers, it gave security to Medicare beneficiaries."

"The College appreciates the opportunity to provide a statement to the Senate Finance Committee that includes our recommendations to improve the implementation of MACRA."

"The perpetual SGR cycle took up far too much of Congress's time and diverted attention from other priorities."

"The passage of MACRA was a tremendous bipartisan achievement that addressed long-standing and reoccurring problems under Medicare."
