Will Democrats Reconciliation Package Lower the Medicare Eligibility Age?
As August recess comes to an end, Congress will be back to work on the two major legislative packages that NAHU has discussed for the past few months \u2013 the $1 trillion bipartisan INVEST in America Act, and Democrats\u2019 $3.5 trillion dollar reconciliation package. On the July 30 edition of the podcast, we discussed the status of these packages prior to August recess. On this week\u2019s episode of the Healthcare Happy Hour, NAHU\u2019s vice presidents of congressional affairs, Chris Hartmann and John Greene, return to discuss what the timeline looks like for passage of these bills and what may be encompassed in the reconciliation package \u2013 including potentially lowering the Medicare eligibility age.
