I'm sure a lot would Dana. After speaking with a few of the office managers/physicians that I have contact with on a regular basis, at least these offices don't feel like their practices could survive without medicare. Even at a 20% cut it's better than no patients. As for our situation we will be stuck as we also serve the dialysis community which is almost 100% medicare. My senior partner often talks of giving up the ship and becoming a hospitalist and just collecting a check.

if he does, have him call me.. we have a hospitalist division and would love to talk to him..

I forget about the segments like yours on dialysis. I do know that if Care decreased reimbursement 20 percent, there would be a lot of docs dropping out though and try to tough it out..

I bought 5 stamps for a total of $2.20 and received the correct change back from a ten yesterday at the Denton Post Office. Everyone in the post office, looked like an alien (and I'm not talking foreigner here).
