HME Advocacy Reset: The Bills that Need Action Now

Presented by AAHomecare’s Tom Ryan, President & CEO, and Jay Witter, Sr. Vice President of Public Policy

The release of the Final Rule marked a major milestone for the HME industry, closing one chapter of intense advocacy while opening another that demands immediate, coordinated action. Although legacy products were not included, the rule’s inclusion of RID reshapes the landscape and creates a critical moment for recalibrating our strategy.

This February, join the Government Relations team for a timely advocacy reset designed to refocus the industry on the legislative priorities that matter most right now. With three bipartisan bills gaining traction in Congress, your engagement is essential to protect patient access and strengthen the future of HME.

What the Session Will Cover:

- Current policy landscape after the Final Rule and what it means for 2026 advocacy

- Dive into the three bipartisan bills - H.R. 1703, H.R. 2005, and H.R. 2902. We'll discuss why they matter, what they fix, and how they protect access for millions of Medicare beneficiaries

- Legislation in motion - Where each bill stands today, what progress has been made, bills being drafted Industry action needed now 

- Industry action needed now - How suppliers, manufacturers, and HME stakeholders can help secure additional cosponsors and elevate the urgency of these bills

This session is open to the HME industry. Get off the sidelines, arm yourself with information and get engaged in policy and advocacy for the future of your business and patients.
