RE: CMS Pitches Physician Payment Decrease for 2023

From: Jack Morgan, DPM

 

The medical profession is under attack again by CMS. The only way out is to change Medicare reimbursement from budget neutral to cost of living! This needs to be the number one AMA, AOA, and APMA directive for all legal battles. When will medicine wake up and say we can’t afford to be viable at this rate or budget neutral position? We should all speak with ONE VOICE and make sure that all parties understand the disaster ahead in Medicine if we don’t stand up and fight now.

 

This constant attack on fees for doctors is not sustainable. I’m retired from clinical practice but believe, as a recipient of Medicare, that this will harm the public without any fight for the rights for doctors. Every area of practice has become more expensive but reimbursements are constantly being attacked and lowered! I’d like to hear the thoughts of those podiatrists in elected positions.
