Medicalbillersandcoders.com Ensure Viable Practice for Pediatric Practitioners in High Density Areas

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/19/2011 -- At $183,000 a year, the pediatricians earn the lowest pay of all physicians except Primary Care physicians, according to the medical search and consulting firm Merritt Hawkins & Associates' 2011 Review of Physician Recruiting Incentives.

The nationally low reimbursement rates for the pediatric specialty have been further aggravated by the rising malpractice rates even when there is no outstanding claim, as well as the cost of living.

With a large number of pediatric patients covered under a single payer, Medicaid, and with close to 60% overheads and far fewer billable diagnoses and procedures, pediatrics reimbursement has remained much lower compared to other specialties. This has led to the pediatric specialty physicians refusing to provide care or even writing off cases. Many more do not participate in plans at all.

The financial issue has led to the overall shortage of pediatric subspecialists in the US as well as their concentration in a few areas such as Massachusetts with 165 pediatricians per 100,000 children is closely followed by other northern states including New York (154), Connecticut (127), Maryland, the District of Columbia (160), and New Jersey (131) – whereas the plains and western states such as Montana (43), South Dakota (41), Wyoming (35) and Idaho (28) registered lowest concentrations.

This situation calls for optimization of pediatric practice in areas with lower concentration of pediatricians as well as providing professional support to physician clinics and hospitals in high concentration areas on effective and efficient management of their practice.

Although the state ranks well as far as the number of insured are concerned, the dearth of medical service providers and physicians is taking its toll. The state ranks 45th according to America's Health Rankings and 22% people live in poverty which does not bode well with the idea of a universal health reform. This simply means that doctors would be hard pressed for time as well as money.

The Winning Formula in These Times of Physicians Shortage

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/29/2011 -- According to the latest data published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there is an acute shortage of physicians across United States; at least 26 states and 17 medical specialties have reported this fact.

The Association of American Medical Colleges has estimated that in the next decade, nearly one third of the existing physicians will retire from active service, the American population will increase by 25 million, 32 million patients will be covered by insurance, and 37 million retirees will need additional healthcare services from the physicians. How is this drastic shortage of physicians to be catered?

The answer lies in helping physicians to improve their efficiency so that they can attend to the needs of more patients. On an average an American physician spends 10.23% of his time in administrative jobs, either supervising or actively participating in the administrative process. They also spend as much as 14% of their revenue in an effort to get paid promptly and for the contracted amount. Physicians need to look for experts to handle their administrative work so that they can focus more on their core profession of treating patients.
