Effective January 1, 2015
A new provision will tie physician payments to the quality of care they
provide. Physicians will see their payments modified so that those who
provide higher value care will receive higher payments than those who
provide lower quality care. |

石头过河，没有定性定量的标准，省钱是终极目标。

dorctors from Tier 1, Tier 2 .... Tier 1 is cheaper than Tier 2, but the
doctors may not be as good. |

"All in all, it is hard not to conclude that the age of the fiercely
independent, entrepreneurial physician will rapidly decline over the next
five years. Whether this is a good or bad thing for the health of the United
States is not clear, but it will have a substantial impact on how doctors
see themselves and how patients see their doctors."
I found it interesting.To my understanding,it would force doctors to join
hospitals to survive.More patients,less paid.MDs may become less appealing
to the young ambitious americans.... |
