Your voice matters ? Medicare
Each year, as part of the Compensation and Employment Survey, we ask physicians to share their thoughts about a topic of interest. Medicare has been in the news a lot of late, between the healthcare bill, the "Doc Fix" and now vouchers. We wanted to find out what physicians think about the current state of Medicare. Below are some of our findings.
89% of orthopedic surgery respondents currently accept Medicare patients.
Top 3 reasons why orthopedic surgery respondents think the Act will not be beneficial:
33% of their patient population is enrolled in Medicare.
#1 Decrease in compensation/decrease in reimbursement
32% of orthopedic surgery respondents said Medicare reimburses less than their cost for the encounter. Fourty-seven percent said they reimburse enough to break even.*
#2 Decreased efficiency/increased workload
#3 Disagree with government involvement in the healthcare system
85% of orthopedic surgery respondents said the upcoming reforms to Medicare, as part of the Affordable Care Act, will not be beneficial to them.**
