TWR Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 Rev, At least it is a response. I don't know if it is a Texas thing but it is the way Medicare is going as far as what has to be documented as accurate and current. The more DX the higher the reimbursement I believe. Being that it is Medicare, I would think it is a national trend. May not affect you because your practice is not primary care I thought.

sas5814 Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I have never heard of them. I knew a doc once that contracted with someone doing nothing but Medicare Wellness exams and he was making about 250k seeing 8 people 3 days a week. This sounds similar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgriffiths Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I'm looking into a position where I will do home visits to do Medicare Wellness Visits. The pay is per evaluation and is tiered, where the more I do per month the more I make. It starts at $77/eval going up to $112/eval, and if I do 7 or more in a single day I get an extra $40 bonus. It is a 1099 position with no reimbursement on gas...but I would have complete control over my schedule. Hemmingway...sign me up for that 24/week. Good grief, that's $200/patient assuming he worked all 52 weeks per year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWR Posted May 5, 2023 Author Share Posted May 5, 2023 Imagine what the company you will work for is getting if they are paying you the money you said. I had heard (3rd hand) that the practice gets upwards of $900+ per patient. Yes the reimbursement is tiered. The more diagnoses the more $$$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fun part was he sold this group his practice for a pile of money, leased them his building for a pile of money, and didn't even change offices. Just went right to work for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
