Bert, yes I do agree that it is that they do not expect to be charged for forms. I just feel that all PCPs should charge for most forms. At least if your income is dependent on their insurance reimbursements.
When you can set your own prices, you can then factor in any forms charge into your general charge. Or just eat the cost. But when you are forced to accept 50% of your charge, then cheated out of more via "bundling" and other shenanigans, well you have to make sure that any work you do is compensated.
There is a value to having a physician review and sign off on a form. Your signature is worth something. I feel you need to be paid that especially today. And if all the physicians begin to do it, then everyone will expect it. Like air at the gas station.
