FAIC Act
Summary
H.R. 8032 would amend Medicare's payment system for hospital outpatient services to address how cancer treatments are reimbursed. The bill, introduced by Representative Neal Dunn (R-FL) in March 2026, aims to ensure that Medicare beneficiaries maintain access to cancer care while guaranteeing that hospitals receive equitable payment for providing these treatments under the Medicare hospital outpatient prospective payment system.
If enacted, this legislation could affect how Medicare pays for cancer treatments administered in hospital outpatient departments, potentially impacting both the availability of these services to Medicare beneficiaries and the financial sustainability of hospital cancer programs. The bill is currently in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives.
