I really appreciate these videos as healthcare billing is maddening for an average consumer. I have a situation recently where we told hospital not to bill our insurance, they gave us discount and bill was 1,900, I thought it was high but I was ready to pay. They then ran through insurance and bill I owe became 3,500. Insanity! What do I do now? Have any videos on this?

Need to repeatedly call billing department and get to the most senior person you can… manager, director, VP. Don’t take ‘No’ from a low level employee.

Hi Dr. Bricker, love the videos, would love to see a dedicated one on your thoughts about medical Rx cost containment/trend. In the section about doctor's skills, what metric is used to quantify skill?
@ahealthcarez Жыл бұрын
Thank you for your suggestion. Good question. Measurement will vary by specialty. Usually some type of performance review. Sometimes via a blinded review of patient charts.

Thank you for the fantastic instruction. I'm trying to align the ideas of CMS underpayment/the need for cross subsidization, and the lack of cost-based accounting. If hospitals don't understand their costs, how can they know if underpayment and the growing Medicare population is truly a concern? CMS is underpayment by 13%, but 13% of what?
@ahealthcarez2 жыл бұрын
Correct. Hospital does not know underpayment by specific service. Can only estimate in aggregate. Thank you for watching and for your comment.

Dr. Bricker, I had a question on your segment about steerage. You said that the contracts between health systems and carriers usually were on an all or nothing basis--all the health system's doctors had to be in network to get the contract. Does this also apply to steering within the doctors in the network so that a carrier would be precluded from steering to the better doctors by listing them on its website in a find a provider tool as being the best doctors for a particular condition, etc.?
@ahealthcarez2 жыл бұрын
For the most part Yes. There are attempts like United’s 1 and 2 Star Doctor Rating, but not the more targeted steerage that employers would like.

How do these organizations rank physicians? What metrics is used, as a physician myself i do not see a practical way in which ranking physicians based on skill is objective, let me know your thoughts thanks

HEDIS ranking for PCPs has been used for years. Mostly measures Doctor-created guideline adherence in practice.
