Robert Vande Merwe: Monthly Idaho Healthcare Update

September 21, 2022 • Nik Hulewsky & Bryan McNeil • Season 1 • Episode 10

Robert Vande Merwe, Executive Director of the Idaho Health Care Association, joins us once again for our monthly Idaho healthcare update.

Robert and Nik discuss their recent trip to Washington D.C., to meet with representatives regarding the new bill, Preserving Access to Home Health Act of 2022 (S. 4605). This bill aims to delay a proposed 7.69% Medicare payment reduction to Home Health agencies until 2026. This would be great news for our Home Health partners.

To help demonstrate support for bill S.4605, please reach out to your State representatives at the Federal level. Below is a link to help search for your representatives:
