Plain-English summary
Medicare Sequester Relief Act
This bill continues to exempt Medicare from sequestration until the end of the public health emergency relating to COVID-19 (i.e., coronavirus disease 2019). (Sequestration is a process of automatic, usually across-the-board spending reductions under which budgetary resources are permanently cancelled to enforce specific budget policy goals.)
