On Thursday, July 12, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released a sprawling 1,473-page proposed rule that includes proposals to dramatically overhaul the way physicians are paid for office and outpatient evaluation and management (E/M) services.
CMS is touting the proposal as “Historic Changes to Modernize Medicare and Restore the Doctor-Patient Relationship.” The Florida Medical Association (FMA) is keeping a close watch on this issue.
