Bill overview
This bill, the Coverage Determination Clarity Act of 2023, aims to ensure Medicare’s local coverage determinations don’t unnecessarily restrict access to medical care. It requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to review existing local coverage determinations to see if they go beyond national coverage decisions and to revise them if necessary. The bill also establishes a process for new local coverage determinations to align with national standards and promotes transparency in the review process.
