| Description |
For the past 20 years, there has been a cap in place to limit the amount of therapy that Medicare beneficiaries can receive. This cap has had a harmful effect, in many cases, preventing patients from receiving the amount of therapy that would help them return to a fully functional life after a devastating illness or injury. After many years of work by Medicare advocacy groups and professional organizations, Congress is finally about to act on legislation that would permanently eliminate the Medicare therapy cap.
