Medicaid GME Proposed Rule
The AAMC is working with others in the hospital community to secure a one-year extension of the current moratorium prohibiting action on the Medicaid rules regarding graduate medical education (the 'GME Proposed Rule") and cost limits/units of government (the "IGT Final Rule"). The current moratorium expires May 25, 2008. The AAMC strongly supports House and Senate legislation (H.R. 3533 and S. 2460) to extend the moratorium for one year (until May 25, 2009).

On May 23, 2007 the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) published in the Federal Register the Medicaid GME proposed rule. More>>

On June 22, AAMC submitted a comment letter to CMS regarding the Medicaid GME proposed rule. More>>

On May 25, 2007, President Bush signed legislation that included a one-year moratorium (expires May 25, 2008) prohibiting any CMS action on the Medicaid GME proposed rule or IGT final rule (see Sec. 7002(a)(1)). More >>
