Will You Get Paid After October 16? [Posted 05/22//03]
CMA is receiving reports of physicians paying large fees to
upgrade their billing systems, only to be told that they still have to use a
clearinghouse whose transaction charges have increased. This is because many
billing systems vendors own (or are owned by) clearinghouses. It is important
that physicians carefully evaluate new or upgraded billing systems before making
a decision that could have a huge financial impact on their practices.
To help physicians in this endeavor, CMA is gathering information from
clearinghouses, payers, and others so that it can provide physicians with the
information they need to make smart decisions about HIPAA compliance. Please let
us know how we can best make that information available to you by taking a short
survey.
