Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
The RECOVER Act of 2026 would eliminate payment reductions for patients receiving multiple therapy services under Medicare, effective January 1, 2027. Currently, Medicare reduces payments by 50 percent when beneficiaries receive certain combinations of therapy services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology on the same day. This bill would change that reduction to zero percent, meaning Medicare would pay the full amount for these multiple therapy services rather than cutting payments in half. The legislation affects Medicare beneficiaries who need concurrent therapy services and therapy providers who deliver these treatments. The bill was introduced in April 2026 and referred to the House committees on Energy and Commerce and Ways and Means for consideration.
