I don't know any more than what you just said, however it comes as no suprise. I will venture to bet that every last one of these companies will do this. Suck us in and then rape us financially, like everyone (EXCEPT DR JON BERTMAN) has done to physicians for years.

They know about the Medicare 2% deal. They want to capitolize upon it. If our 2% incentive becomes a 1% incentive or a 0.5% incentive once we figure in the added overhead charges, WHY BOTHER????

For my small practice, it's not worth a 2% incentive.
