Do we know if this will expose physician fees? If not, I imagine physicians could charge the patients, then physicians and hospitals could settle the difference on the backend.
In other words, a potential downside of partial sunlight could come from the fact that providers may want to move costs/charges around to obscure prices therefore making the system even more inefficient.
- IG_Semmelweiss 6y agothat's not possible. At least not possible on a large scale. there are strict regulations (AKS and Stark) governing hospital <> Provider pay payments. Any pay in excess of medical services FMV will be toxic to pay out and could land both hospitals and providers in big trouble.
