We Want to Hear from You:

People are receiving bills in the mail right now, telling them that their ACA premiums are about to skyrocket. We’ve heard directly from New Jerseyans who are concerned about what rising healthcare costs would mean for them and their families. Their stories paint a clear picture: we are in the midst of a healthcare crisis that we must address.


If you are receiving these notices in the mail, or if you would be impacted by rising healthcare costs and the end of the ACA premium tax credits, we want to hear from you today.

Please send your story to an...@kim.senate.gov and help us shine a light on how this would impact you.

Subject: Protect Medicare — Oppose the WISeR Initiative in New Jersey

Dear friends:

Several weeks ago, I wrote to you about Medicare's "WISeR" initiative - Wasteful and Inappropriate Service Reduction. Six States have been chosen to pilot this program, which for the first time will require health professionals to obtain pre-authorization for certain medical procedures before Medicare will agree to cover these services. New Jersey has been chosen as one of the 6 States that will "participate"!

Never before in the 60 year history of the traditional Medicare program has pre-authorization been required before a physician may order a therapeutic intervention. AI software will be utilized in screening those procedures that will require further scrutiny, and the company that has designed the software will receive a share of the savings obtained through payment denials. Not only will this project create more administrative bloat, it is an intrusion into the practice of medicine that will adversely affect physician morale and further disrupt the Dr.- Patient relationship.

I urge all to call and write Senators Booker, Kim, and your respective Congressional Representatives, asking them to put a stop to this pilot project. Call the switchboard at the US Capitol at 202-224-3121, then you will be routed to the appropriate office. All Congressional Reps. have websites allowing constituents to leave a message.

It is urgent that you take action as soon as possible to prevent this pilot program from becoming law! Without our coordinated opposition, this program, with potentially disastrous consequences, will go forward.

Thank you!
