DMT144-25 - CME/CMLE - Public Policy Update

Course Description

The 2024 elections brought about a sea change in politics at the federal level, with Republicans winning the While House and both chambers of Congress. Republicans now have significant power to make major changes in the federal government programs and operations. Join us for a discussion of federal policy regarding Medicare coverage and payment for pathology and clinical laboratory services. In addition, our expert panel will update attendees on the recent decision in the lawsuit that successfully challenged the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s authority to regulate laboratory developed tests and how Congress may change the landscape for these laboratory services. Lastly, we will update attendees on efforts ASCP is working on to reduce the regulatory burden on the practice of pathology and laboratory medicine.
