Law of cause and effect....if the physicians would have been paid at a decent compensation rate, we wouldn't have "concierge" care...think about it...and now they say it violates the contract..one more strike for the industry overall...the patient has to file their claim normally with a concierge practice to what it comes right down to the the inability to process these claims electronically in my opinion...and shoot not too long ago these folks said they were going to be "friendlier"...BD
Doctors who charge an annual fee to patients in exchange for customized care including house calls are drawing the ire of some health insurance companies.
United Healthcare confirmed it is dropping four local doctors from its network in April because the company disapproves of their so-called "concierge medicine" model.
United Healthcare spokeswoman Cheryl Randolph said the concierge model "directly conflicts" with the insurer's contract with the doctors.
