Bill overview
The Ensuring Access to Essential Providers Act of 2025 aims to improve Medicare Advantage coverage by requiring these plans to include a sufficient number of ‘essential community providers’ in their service areas. These providers, such as Federally qualified health centers and rural hospitals, serve predominantly low-income and medically underserved individuals. The bill mandates that Medicare Advantage plans demonstrate they are meeting this standard and provides a process for plans that don’t meet the standard to justify their provider network and demonstrate a plan to improve access.
