Clean CLAIMS Act
Latest action (7 May 2024): Introduced
What this bill does
H.R. 8283, the Clean CLAIMS Act, would amend the Social Security Act to establish a Medicare demonstration project testing artificial-intelligence-based "clean claims" processing. Under the bill, the Secretary of Health and Human Services would contract with a Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) to recruit at least 500 physicians to voluntarily use a point-of-care platform that records patient-physician encounters, automatically generates and submits Medicare Part B claims, applies payer billing guidelines, and populates supporting medical record documentation. The project would run for three years, beginning within a year of enactment or once physicians are adequately trained.
The demonstration would primarily affect Medicare Part B beneficiaries treated by participating physicians, physicians who choose to join, and the MAC administering the project. Beneficiaries could not be charged cost-sharing for claims submitted through the program that are billed incorrectly or found not covered, and claims submitted under the project would be exempt from Medicare's Recovery Audit Program. The Secretary would be required to publish a request for proposals for the technology platform within six months of enactment and report to Congress on the project's results, physician feedback, and recommendations one year after it begins.
The bill was introduced on May 7, 2024, by Rep. David Schweikert and referred to the House Committees on Energy and Commerce and Ways and Means. It has not received a vote and would need committee action and further congressional approval before becoming law.
