Access to Pediatric Technologies Act of 2024

This bill establishes a process for Medicare to set payment rates for certain pediatric medical devices used in children's care. Manufacturers of qualifying pediatric technologies (devices approved by the FDA, covered under Medicare, and designed specifically for children or used predominantly in pediatric procedures) can request the Secretary to create national payment rates under the physician fee schedule. The Secretary must then set these rates using available data like claims or pricing information, with specific deadlines for processing requests (by May 1 for same-year implementation). This affects Medicare payments for these devices but does not change coverage requirements or guarantee payment for new technologies.
