ModernMed Physicians
Primary care in the United States is at a critical point in its history.
- Reimbursement is declining while costs are increasing
- Medicare reimbursement is scheduled to be reduced by 34% over the next several years.*
- Patient care costs are expected to increase by 22% during the same time period.*
- For physicians, the financial picture is alarming
- In more than half of all primary care practices, overhead absorbs more than 50% revenue.**
- Nearly 30% of primary care physicians do not think they will be able to support practice overhead in 5 years.**
Physicians are being paid less and less every year as their costs continue to rise, forcing many to see an increasing number of patients just to break even. As a result, both physicians and their patients are increasingly dissatisfied with the primary care experience.
A Modern Trend is Emerging
In response to the current market circumstances, a new trend is emerging in primary care. Retainer medicine practices, where patients pay a defined fee for services over an established period of time, have become increasingly popular and provide physicians with several benefits over traditional practice models. Retainer medicine practices come in two distinct forms:
- Fee For Care (FFC) - the defined fee covers primary medical care
- Fee for Non-Covered Services (FNCS) - the defined fee covers certain medical and non-medical services not covered by Medicare or by insurance
