Wow, I guess I should have considered radiology when I was going to college!

CC: histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Because there is a huge shortage of primary care docs as it is, which will only get worse when millions of uninsured people suddenly have insurance. So I guess they are trying to entice more med students into primary care. There is a push to train more physician's assistants too As it is, the top medical students want to go into something like radiology or dermatology so they can work banker's hours and make 5x as much money as a PCHP, and who can blame them? I friend of mine who is a radiology tech saw a locum radiologist's pay stub left on the fax machine (by accident), and said radiologist makes $280./hr. Jay A.

Thank you René. Couldn't agree more. As a Stage 3C ovarian cancer patient, I would be bankrupt right now if not for insurance. I've been on/off chemotherapy for the past five years, and at nearly $4,000.00 a treatment, not to mention nearly $200,000.00 in surgery costs ... The monthly cost of insurance pales in comparison to the cost of a catastrophic illness. Hermina M.

There are caps on what folks must pay, folks... please read the law. There are many good things about the new law. Also realize that all of the changes we're facing are not part of Obamacare. The Grandfather clause has been ending for years. Congress finally let it this year. Something had to change and change is hard.

RE: [Histonet] 88305TC starting to hit the fan...
Let's be a little factual. The discussion to cut 88305 has been going on for years, even before the Accountable Care Act was passed. Lab fees (TC) and professional fees (PC) in general have been under the gun for cuts year after year. Health care is changing due to the unsustainable costs associated with providing services. The ACA did give the government a reason to take a hard look at many of the codes. 88305 hadn't been evaluated closely since 1999. It is debatable as to what data was used to develop a cost analysis for the work done to determine the cuts. 88305 is being cut by 51.7% on the TC side. Interestingly, the PC(26) side is being increased by 1.9%. Likewise, 88300 is being but 57.1%, 88302 is being cut 51% and 88304 is being cut 34.7%. All of them have slight increases for the PC side.

RE: [Histonet] 88305TC starting to hit the fan...
CAP has a webinar on the web site that explains all this pretty well. Seems like the reimbursement was increased for 88307 and 88309, so that the overall decrease is 6% if I understood correctly. I need to meditate on it a bit. The problem with the 88305 code is that clinicians have taken it away from pathologists... I've been harping for years.. prostates being the biggest culprit for price increase. Shame, shame, shame - in Gomer Pyle speak.. !! :) Joyce Weems Pathology Manager 678-843-7376 Phone 678-843-7831 Fax joyce.we...@emoryhealthcare.org www.saintjosephsatlanta.org 5665 Peachtree Dunwoody Road Atlanta, GA 30342 This e-mail, including any attachments is the property of Saint Joseph's Hospital and is intended for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).

Re: [Histonet] 88305TC starting to hit the fan...
Because there is a huge shortage of primary care docs as it is, which will only get worse when millions of uninsured people suddenly have insurance. So I guess they are trying to entice more med students into primary care. There is a push to train more physician's assistants too As it is, the top medical students want to go into something like radiology or dermatology so they can work banker's hours and make 5x as much money as a PCHP, and who can blame them? I friend of mine who is a radiology tech saw a locum radiologist's pay stub left on the fax machine (by accident), and said radiologist makes $280./hr. Jay A.

Re: [Histonet] 88305TC starting to hit the fan...
Sure they want more physicians. My husband was forced to leave medical school when he became sick (they wouldn't give him a medical leave of absence). No other medical school would touch him after that. They thought something was fishy, his transcript reads medical leave of absence which wasn't true. The other shcools can't figure out why the school he was in wouldn't take him back. If he wanted to retake the MCAT and apply cold, they told him he could do that. Medicine is a self limiting profession. The AMA determines how many doctors are availabe to keep a limited resource, limited. Thus the $280/hour radiologist. You leave with close to $200,000 in debt if attending a private school. Primary care pays, in most regions, under $100,000/yr. When you have that kind of debt, lower paying primary care jobs aren't enticing. My bitter two cents.
