Sunday, June 14. 2009DR's group now opposes government health care plan.
The AMA just announced they are no longer playing along with the new proposed public health care plan. Maybe they know something we don't know. They may know that the government claims they will try and pay the providers 10% more than they reimburse for Medicare now. However, this is still 30-40% less than private health insurance has to pay currently in some cases. In addition who is to say when the government is providing health care to all of us and we are all within their fence they don't come back and say we can no longer pay 10% above Medicare rates. In fact, we now see it was more than we thought it was (this never happens to the US government by the way) and we can now only pay 10% less then Medicare reimbursement rates. Will your DR. be happy with a herd of cattle running through their office for 50% less pay?
