Thought I would give this a try...

Medicare Pay Cuts - What would you do if not abated by Congress?

If the10% Medicare Pay Cuts are not abated, what would you do?  I though this might be a good time to do a simple poll and see what we come up with.

  • Will stop seeing Medicare Patients all together (12.5%)
  • Will stop taking new Medicare Patients - keep existing patients (25%)
  • Will continue on - business as usual (50%)
  • Will stop practicing medicine all together (0%)
  • Not sure (12.5%)
  • Total Votes: 8
  • Voting Ended: 7/12/2008

There should be another option-

"Stop seeing new patients for now, and reconsider Medicare participation later on, s.a. either opting out altogether or becoming a 'participating non-participating physician'."
