The Endocrine Society is the world’s largest and most established organization of endocrine clinicians and scientists devoted to solving the most pressing health problems of our time. We identify and act on policy issues that will impact the profession of endocrinology and patients with endocrine conditions; and conduct outreach on behalf of the Hormone Health Network, the Society's public education arm.
We are your trusted advisor and advocate, ensuring your voice is heard and influences policy conversations. We share your recommendations and concerns with lawmakers in the United States and around the world.
On April 30, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued another round of regulatory waivers and rule changes to provide flexibility during the COVID-19 federal public health emergency. This change includes increasing payments for telephone visits to match payment for similar office and outpatient visits, which will increase payments for these services from a range of about $14-41 to about $46-110.
