SLP Advocacy/Action Alert! Ask Congress for IDEA Funding in Next COVID-19 Stimulus

Ensure Future COVID-19 Legislation Recognizes the Needs of Audiologists, SLPs, and Those They Serve!    Tell Congress that any future COVID-19 legislation should provide:

  • an additional $12.8B in funding for IDEA;
  • a solution to ensure that budget neutrality for the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule  does not result in reimbursement cuts to audiologists and SLPs in 2021 and beyond;
  • permanent authority to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services  Secretary to allow audiologists and SLPs to bill Medicare for telehealth services; and
  • hazard pay for front line SLPs who work in settings such as hospitals and skilled nursing facilities.
