Protect ESRD Patient Access to Private Coverage
In December, H.R. 6860 - The Restore Protections for Dialysis Patients Act was introduced by Representatives Mike Kelly (R-PA), Yvette Clarke (D-NY), Neal Dunn, MD (R-FL), Danny Davis (D-IL), John Joyce, MD (R-PA) and Raul Ruiz, MD (D-CA) and would restore the protections for ESRD patients and allow them to stay on the insurance coverage of their choice
A recent U.S. Supreme Court decision threatens access to private coverage by permitting health plans to carve off dialysis benefits from their networks, and impose restrictive terms on patients. This legislation will restore the protections Congress has intended to guarantee for over 40 years.
