Medicare for All:
Built for those who deliver care

Doc typing.jpg

The Medicare for All Act of 2025 (S. 1506 / H.R. 3069) isn't only about patients. Here is what it says about doctors, nurses and the people who work beside them.

What's in the Bill for You?

Your judgment protected

Clinicians who depart from a guideline in the patient's best interest stay covered. Billing codes can't be used to pay or penalize individual clinicians, or to interfere with medical and nursing decisions.

Sec. 203(c), 301(b)(1)(G)

The trade-offs, plainly

There is a four-year transition period to full implementation. Health care professionals have the option of participating in the program. Those opting out may not provide the listed medically necessary services. Fee schedules and hospital budgets start from Medicare rates, which are often below commercial rates. Pay at institutions is capped at a federal contractor limit. Read the texts (links are below) and weigh it for yourself.

Vote like your practice depends on it

Ask every candidate where they stand on Medicare for All, and urge our members of Congress to cosponsor.
