Healthcare Changes for 2025: End of Year Review
With the closing of another year and looking ahead to a new Congress as well as a new presidential term, we can expect to see quite a few changes in healthcare policy. That’s why this week on The Amplify OT Podcast and my final episode of 2024, I am talking about healthcare changes for 2025!

In this episode, I cover:
- Updates to the podcast, Amplify OT Collective, and learning platform.
- With Donald Trump winning the election, Republicans will control the House and the Senate, making it significantly easier to pass legislation.
- What Trump’s cabinet appointments mean for the future of occupational therapy.
- With a new year of Congress, anything that has been waiting to be passed will have to be re-introduced; this comes with its own set of implications, especially with Telehealth.
- Starting Jan. 1, 2025, Medicare Part B will allow general instead of direct supervision for OTA.
- Caregiver codes under the Medicare Part B schedule have been expanded to include three additional codes.
- Other Medicare Part B updates that will help reduce administrative burden and change the valuation of CPT codes, as well as a brief update to home health.
