I’m thinking that the 21% cut TOMORROW would have hurt immediately.
BS, There was never the possibility of a 21% cut tomorrow. They pass the doc fix every year. This solution is more costly and will be a problem. Instead of a doc fix every year, we will have one in 10 years, but the costs of this fix are huge and could result in less access to doctors and reduced payments to hospitals and nursing homes, which will reduce the quality of care.
