119th Congress
S.J.Res. 198

Stops a Medicare test that reviews claims before care

Ends a Medicare test in six states that used outside companies and artificial intelligence to decide whether certain services would be paid for before they were given.

  • The test started January 1, 2026, in New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Arizona and Washington
  • Companies reviewed coverage requests before care was given, using artificial intelligence
  • Companies were paid a share of the savings the reviews produced
  • The test was set to run six years; this resolution stops it
