jmj11 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I just got a notice that PBC is reducing payments for work done by PAs by 15% to "reflect industry standards." A few exceptions. PAs in surgery and hospital based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator EMEDPA Posted November 15, 2012 Moderator Share Posted November 15, 2012 were you getting 100% of the md level payments before? sounds like they are lining up with the medicare fee schedule. lots of other companies do this as well unfortunately for both pa and np provided services.

discogenic Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Is this 15% off the 100% rate, or 15% off an already reduced rate (e.g., 85% - 15% = 70%) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmj11 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Is this 15% off the 100% rate, or 15% off an already reduced rate (e.g., 85% - 15% = 70%) ? 15% off 100% thus 85% of what they pay the physician for the same services. Hurts us because the PA gives 95% of the care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
