It provides an extra payment to healthcare providers for certain services they deliver in 2021 and 2022 if the payment they would normally receive is lower than what they received in 2020. The bill focuses on services paid under the Medicare physician fee schedule, excluding some outpatient evaluation and management services, and specifically excludes certain HCPCS codes.
