Summary: The Illinois Academy of Family Physicians (IAFP) opposes the proposed rule because it exceeds congressional intent by extending Medicare-based payment limits to nearly all non-grandfathered State Directed Payments (SDPs). They argue the proposal reduces state flexibility, increases administrative burdens, and threatens access to essential services like maternal and pediatric care.
