Both Sens. Martha McSally and Kyrsten Sinema, along with 32 other U.S. senators from both political parties, are urging the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to provide interest relief on its newly expanded program.
In late March, CMS expanded the Accelerated and Advanced Payment program, but it comes with interest rate concerns for health care providers.
In an April 8 letter to the superintendent, and the secretary of the Department of U.S. Health and Human Services, the senators asked that the 10.25 interest rate be waived or delayed.
