Sustainable Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Services in the Home Act

2/26/2025, 5:23 AM

Summary of Bill HR 783

Bill 119 hr 783, also known as the "In-Home Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Flexibilities Extension Act," aims to make permanent certain flexibilities related to in-home cardiopulmonary rehabilitation that were established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The bill seeks to amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to ensure that individuals have continued access to in-home cardiopulmonary rehabilitation services, even after the pandemic has ended. These services are crucial for individuals with heart and lung conditions, as they help improve their overall health and quality of life.

By making these flexibilities permanent, the bill aims to ensure that individuals can continue to receive the care they need in the comfort of their own homes, rather than having to travel to a healthcare facility. This not only improves access to care but also reduces the risk of exposure to infectious diseases. In addition to extending these flexibilities, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to cardiopulmonary rehabilitation. Overall, the bill aims to improve access to care for individuals with heart and lung conditions and ensure that they can continue to receive the necessary services to maintain their health and well-being.
