Summary of Bill HR 2120

Bill 119 hr 2120 aims to make changes to the Social Security Act in order to establish a Radiation Oncology Case Rate Value Based Payment Program. This program would be exempt from budget neutrality adjustment requirements, meaning that the payments made under this program would not have to be offset by reductions in payments to other providers.

Additionally, the bill seeks to amend section 1128A of title XI of the Social Security Act to create a new exception for the provision of free or discounted transportation for radiation oncology patients who need to receive radiation therapy services. This exception would allow providers to offer transportation assistance to patients without facing penalties under anti-kickback laws.

Overall, the goal of this legislation is to improve access to radiation oncology services for patients by creating a payment program that incentivizes high-quality care and by removing barriers to transportation for those in need of treatment.
