There has never been a more important time to join Patient Power Alliance. For Doctors...The passage of Patient Protection and Affordable Care (PPACA) puts in place mechanisms that will lead to rationing of treatment, increase dependency on government reimbursements, mandates electronic health records and seeks to further displace private health coverage. Add to that, discussions surrounding Medicare payment rates, and the most recent announcement that CMS is increasing the number of Recovery Audit Contractors (RACs). Get started!For Patients..There is nothing more personal than the health of you and your family. Doctors are under attack - and it's impacting their ability to treat you as a patient. Increased pressures from insurance companies and bureaucrats are rationing care, increasing dependency on government and mandating doctors comply with electronic health records that endanger patient privacy. Get started! |
DPMA in the News!
August 1st, 2012
Written by Loren HealPhysicians reacted with shock and anger to the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold the President Obama’s health care law, according to poll data and the leaders of activist groups, which are continuing to fight the law in court and via political action. According to Kathryn Serkes, cofounder of the Doctor Patient Medical Association, a recent nationwide poll sponsored by her organization found 83 percent of U.S. physicians have considered leaving their practices due to President Obama’s law. “This not just something that started today, and it’s not something that just started with passage” of Obama’s law, said Serkes. “There have been developments in medicine that have made it very, very difficult and have put some seriously different pressures on doctors. But this bill has certainly brought things to a head.” |
