In plain English
The SOAR Act of 2025 establishes new Medicare payment rules for supplemental oxygen and related equipment, supplies, and services by removing them from the competitive acquisition program and instead providing separate, inflation-indexed payments. The bill requires Medicare to cover respiratory therapist services and provide additional payment adjustments for these services. It mandates that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services develop an electronic template for oxygen prescriptions and establishes beneficiary rights including the ability to choose suppliers and receive clear information about services provided.
