Hospital "facility fees" can saddle patients with large, unexpected bills. #AIMPA VP Dr. David Eagle shares how #patients can avoid these fees by seeking care from independent practices in @ScrippsNews: https://t.co/nslZ795puG
We need a permanent fix to the #Medicare Physician Fee Schedule: Since 2001, Medicare #physician reimbursement has increased just 10%, while #hospital reimbursement has increased roughly 70%. Adjusted for inflation, that's a ~30% decrease for physicians.

AIMPA Federal Health Policy Chair Dr. Jack Feltz: "When independent practices affiliate with private equity-backed entities, Medicare spending goes down and patients spend less time in the hospital. Those are trends policymakers should encourage."
