In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced on Saturday March 28, 2020, that it is expanding its Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Program (AAPP) to allow nearly all Medicare providers and suppliers to receive advances on future Medicare reimbursement. To provide further relief to healthcare providers and suppliers, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security U.S. Cares Act (CARES Act), which was signed into law on March 27, 2020, eliminates from May 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020 the 2% sequestration-mandated reductions to Medicare reimbursement. We review these developments in greater detail below.
