Bill to Eliminate Competitive Bidding Gains Sponsors
H.R. 3790, a bill to eliminate the Competitive Bidding program now has 118 co-sponsors.
H.R. 3790 was introduced by Rep. Meek (D-FL) on October 13, 2009 and has been dubbed the Meek Bill. If passed, the bill would effectively repeal the Competitive Bidding program and terminate the contracts of any bid winners.
To keep itself budget neutral, H.R. 3790 proposes two separate cuts in the consumer price index. The first cut of -0.25% would affect all DME except for Group 3 complex wheelchairs from 2010-2012. A second cut of -0.5% would then occur in 2015 (Group 3 wheelchairs would again be exempt).
