Lexology January 4, 2024
Welcome to the second session of the 118th U.S. Congress, which is scheduled to return from its holiday recess next week. From a healthcare perspective, in the near term, Congress is focused on passing two major healthcare spending bills and trying to include various health initiatives. Congress has only 15 days until the first government funding deadline – January 19, 2024. Funding for Agriculture-FDA, Energy and Water, Military Construction-VA and Transportation-HUD runs through January 19, 2024, with everything else funded until February 2, 2024.
LEGISLATIVE UPDATES
In 2024, two primary vehicles will likely advance healthcare initiatives: 1) a healthcare-focused package that would ride on an appropriations bill in early 2024 and 2) a lame-duck health package.
