Premium   Download PDF Now (3 pages)
Congress 114th
Date Requested June 24, 2015
Requested By Senate Committee on Finance
Date Sent July 21, 2015
Description:

S. 1253 would modify Medicare coverage and payment rules for negative pressure wound therapy equipment that includes a disposable pump. CBO estimates that enacting S. 1253 would reduce direct spending by about $21 million over the 2016-2025 period. Pay-as-you-go procedures apply because enacting the legislation would affect direct spending. Enacting the legislation would not affect revenues.

S. 1253 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
