This week, the MGMA Government Affairs team released the 2021 Annual Regulatory Burden Report. This annual report captures the impact of federal regulations on medical group practices, and these data points and stories will help drive #MGMAAdvocacy.

With responses from 420 medical group practices, the survey findings demonstrate the impact that increasing regulatory burden has on practices. An overwhelming majority (91%) of respondents reported that the overall regulatory burden on their medical practice has increased over the past 12 months. And an even greater number of respondents (95%) agreed a reduction in regulatory burden would allow their practice to reallocate resources toward patient care.

Thank you to all of our members who participated in this survey! This is only one of many opportunities for members to partner with the Government Affairs team in #MGMAAdvocacy. For more information about how to engage in current advocacy efforts, please visit the MGMA Advocacy webpage.
