AAPPSPA has submitted its official comments on the proposed 2027 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule.
Our members bring a range of perspectives to these proposed changes, and our comment was written to reflect that. Rather than assuming one outcome would work best for every practice, we examined the potential benefits, risks, and real-world consequences of the different paths CMS may take.
The comment draws on member data, the public valuation record, and the day-to-day experience of private practices to address shared concerns about payment, patient access, coding, implementation, and administrative burden.
Our goal was to provide CMS with a thoughtful, practical, and balanced analysis—and a clear picture of what small SLP practices need before these changes move forward.
