As to Wendell's comment, "Hospitals are not flowing with money, (at least not in my neck of the woods)".... around here they all cry poor but are RAKING it in. A relatively "poor" hospital in our area just announced a $480 million renovation.
Our hospital CEO salary... last news report I see says he got a 24% raise in 2012 to $1.6 million. I am guessing he has had sizable increases since then.
99213
Medicaid in Maryland $73.50
BC BS $59.36
Aetna $69.22
99214
Medicaid $108
BC BS $82.59
Aetna $102.17
I encourage others to post as well.
Now just for kicks.... take a guess what I get paid by Medicaid for a colonoscopy, done at the hospital or ASC
