PING!

Note the relatively low capitation payment: $321 per person, per month.

It sucks, and should be referred to as :

Obama’s Socialist Health Insurance Taxes
O S H I T

Some of the Government’s reimbursement rates are so low that the docs loose money on every patient they treat. That’s why so many don’t take Medicare or Medicaid.

Excellent article.

Thanks for the ping.

The $321 capitation cost does appear low.

I’ve seen the national average reported at $5,500, which would be $460 per month.

Specialist compensation at 20% of normal fee is shocking.

Why would any COMPETENT specialist accept that kind of money, unless he is a candidate for sainthood?
