Provider Reimbursement Stability Act of 2026

This bill changes how Medicare sets the payment rates for doctors. It raises the limit on how much yearly payment adjustments can change total spending from $20 million to $54.3 million starting in 2027, with that limit updated for inflation every five years. It also requires the agency that runs Medicare to compare how much it expected to spend on certain services versus how much it actually spent, and if the difference is too large, it must fix the payments the following year. The bill also says the government must update the prices it uses to calculate costs, like equipment prices, at least every five years, and it limits how much a certain payment adjustment factor can change from year to year.
