GOP Doctors Caucus Endorses RESULTS Act
Washington, D.C. - Today, the GOP Doctors Caucus announces its endorsement of H.R. 5269, the Reforming and Enhancing Sustainable Updates to Laboratory Testing Services (RESULTS) Act, bipartisan and bicameral legislation that would safeguard essential testing and diagnostic services that physicians and patients rely on for clinical decision-making and provide stability for the Medicare program and clinical laboratories.
"Clinical laboratory tests are the very foundation of the practice of medicine," said Co-Chairs Rep. Greg Murphy, M.D. & Rep. John Joyce, M.D. "Physicians rely on data from clinical laboratory tests every day to prevent disease, diagnose conditions, guide treatment decisions, and monitor patient outcomes. The RESULTS Act reforms Medicare's current laboratory payment system and ensures these critical services remain available to continue guiding patient care."
