Posted on | June 18, 2010

Reports indicate that Senators Max Baucus (D-MT) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) have reached a deal on a six-month delay to Medicare physician payment cuts, which are scheduled to go into effect today.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) will bring the legislation up for unanimous consent as early as today. The deal came after a Thursday night vote to cut off debate on the Medicare bill was defeated, 56-40.
