I've been considering the e-prescribing to increase Medicare reimbursement, and lower malpractice rates. I don't like the idea that I have to pay to subscribe to a program to do it.
Leslie, I didn't realize that you did the drop the active priveleges thing. You are such a rebel! I am considering this as well. I am tired of the unassigned patients in the ED. Generally high demand patients who are no pay. The hospital is not interested in paying me either. Under courtesy priveleges I can still manage/admit up to 75 patients per year. I do endoscopy and this could potentially limit the number of cases, but with each case I do, the hospital gets the equipment/room charge...they might be flexible with the 75 case per year number. Didn't mean to steal the post.
