I think the bottom line is that the Medicare Wellness series are another good idea spoiled by bureaucratic over-reach.
I have pretty much stopped doing them -- they are a waste of time, and don't reimburse adequate for time invested.
Ditto for chronic care management, Home Health management, Hospital Transition of Care and all the rest.
Once in a while, if you play the cards just right, you can make a little money.
