SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE; FINDINGS. 1
(a) S
HORTTITLE.—This Act may be cited as the 2
‘‘Amputation Reduction and Compassion Act of 2025’’ or 3
the ‘‘ARC Act of 2025’’. 4
(b) F
INDINGS.—Congress makes the following find-5
ings: 6
(1) Atherosclerosis occurs when blood flow is 7
reduced because arteries become narrowed or 8
blocked with fatty deposits. 9
(2) Atherosclerosis is responsible for more 10
deaths in the United States than any other condi-11
tion, and heart attacks, resulting from clogged coro-12
nary arteries, are the leading cause of death in 13
America. 14
(3) Atherosclerosis also occurs in the legs and 15
is known as peripheral artery disease (in this sub-16
section referred to as ‘‘PAD’’) and having PAD sig-17
nificantly increases the risk for heart attack, stroke, 18
amputation, and death. 19
(4) While most Americans are aware of athero-20
sclerosis in the heart, many Americans have never 21
heard of PAD and Americans with PAD are often 22
unaware of the serious risks of the disease. 23
(5) An estimated 21 million Americans have 24
PAD, and about 200,000 of them—disproportion-25

ately minorities—suffer avoidable amputations every 1
year as a result of such disease. 2
(6) According to the Dartmouth Atlas, amputa-3
tion risks for African Americans living with diabetes 4
are as much as four times higher than the national 5
average. 6
(7) Data analyses have similarly found that Na-7
tive Americans are more than twice as likely to be 8
subjected to amputation and Hispanics are up to 75 9
percent more likely to have an amputation. 10
(8) Fifty-two percent of patients with an above- 11
the-knee amputation and 33 percent of patients with 12
a below-the-knee amputation will die within two 13
years of their amputation. 14
(9) Screening and arterial testing for PAD is 15
cost-effective and should be part of routine medical 16
care. 17
(10) Once PAD is detected, amputations and 18
deaths can be reduced through the use of national, 19
evidence-based PAD care guidelines. 20
(11) Americans with a PAD diagnosis are asso-21
ciated with a 67-percent increase in the risk of car-22
diac death compared to people without a PAD diag-23
nosis. Consequently, screening for PAD enables 24
health care professionals to identify cardiac risk fac-25
