Program Description
The way in which a physician practice is reimbursed varies depending on the type of services provided. For example, certain entities are paid based on how many procedures are performed, while others are based on the number of patients the entity is responsible for providing service to, how long procedures last, or how many days the patient was under the care of the entity.
