    Medicare Pay Cuts - Opinion Poll

    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

    Re: Medicare Pay Cuts - Opinion Poll

    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'."
