Effects of Changes in the Medicare Physician Fee System
15 May 2012 | 2:30 pmRelatively newly practicing physicians may not know that the Medicare physician payment system changed pretty substantially in the early nineties. This was by design. The perception of those who designed this new system was that certain services were overpaid and others underpaid. It likely had much more to do with ratcheting down the costs of health care. As physician fees constitute only 10-20% of the entire equation, the wisdom of concentrating on physician’s fees to change the system is perhaps questionable. This is what was done nevertheless. A cornerstone philosophy of the new… -

Why No One Likes You on Facebook
24 Apr 2012 | 1:50 pmHaving trouble figuring our why you don't have Facebook likes? One challenge of Facebook is understanding a business's role in developing an engaged audience. When you buy radio you basically buy an audience, a known quantity. Radio stations create content and then give it away to anyone interested in what they are broadcasting. This is how they develop an audience. For example, you can buy "time" on a station that appeals to women between 35 and 49 based on music preferences for that "demo." Essentially you buy the right to interrupt the target audience's free music and try to get their… -
