To Par or Not to Par? [The Critical Question for 2010]

About the Medicare HIT 1115 Project

By Ann Miller; RN, MHA

[Executive-Director]

At least one iconoclastic physician, ME-P thought-leader Al Borges MD, has asked that all doctors unite and participate in this year’s Medicare “HIT 1115 Project”; now in-process.

The November 15, 2009 Project

November 15, 2009 began the 6-week time period during which all medical providers can switch Medicare participation. If all physicians become “non-participating” or simply “opt-out,” then lawmakers and their lobbyists may take notice that doctors are fed-up with government intrusion into physician affairs!
