That's a very interesting situation I haven't considered to this point. BTW, it should be only 85% the MD rate if this bill passes, because we aren't physicians.
Thanks for the information. Didn't realize the reimbursement could be lower.

Reimbursement is definitely lower for NPs (85% of MD), but the diagnostic tests that they order are still the same price. I would say 15% the cost of an office visit is a drop in the bucket to overall healthcare costs.
What happens if you factor in more referrals to specialists, more tests, more visits, more prescriptions?
