2025 Advocacy Priorities
Where We Stand
The American College of Physicians advocates to make the Medicaid program work for both internal medicine physicians and their patients. This includes advocating to ensure that Medicaid reimbursement rates are adequate to reimburse physicians for the cost of providing services. We also believe that Medicaid minimum eligibility standards should be uniform on a national basis and policymakers should refrain from enacting policy changes that would result in vulnerable persons being dropped from Medicaid coverage.
