Following a financially devastating year for medical practices nationwide, physicians are facing a new threat from looming Medicare payment changes that will have consequences far beyond the federal program itself if Congress doesn’t act soon. In this episode FMA Director of Health Care Policy and Innovation Jarrod Fowler, MHA, joins CEO Timothy J. Stapleton to discuss four pressing payment controversies all physicians should be aware of, how the FMA is addressing them, and what to expect next. “Whatever the effects of these policies nationally, they’ll be greater in Florida," Fowler said.
