So far only 7 states will be definitely continuing some type of increase in reimbursement(definitely NOT Florida and definitely Alabama). The promised increase varies between the 7 states. The AAP and others are currently suing the State of Florida for their current transition to Managed Care. Part of the lawsuit addresses the fact that Florida has decided(through its legislature) not to continue the increase in funding. Unless Congress approves at least another 2 year funding these decreased reimbursements will go ahead. One can only imagine the disaster on January 1st 2015 when practices will have to make a decision to either see 3x more patients per day or fire staff.
