Bill overview
This bill, the Medicare Sequester COVID Moratorium Act, aims to continue protecting Medicare from across-the-board budget cuts (sequestration). It extends a previous suspension of these cuts until the end of the public health emergency related to COVID-19. Specifically, the bill modifies a key provision of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act to link the suspension to the ongoing COVID-19 emergency declaration. This ensures Medicare remains financially stable during the pandemic.
