- Title
Health plans clash with physicians over payment issues.
- Abstract
The article reports on the debate between health insurers and physicians over payment issues in the United States. Wellpoint/Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield of Ohio has begun paying physicians the same rate for level-II and level-IV visits. American Academy of Family Physicians Board Chair Mary Frank has sent a letter to insurers across the country asking them to start following current procedural terminology guidelines and stop bundling evaluation and management services provided on the same date.
