As the Medicare reimbursement goes up so does the patient's out of pocket contribution. A similar treatment regimen for cancer can be conducted in a hospital outpatient delivery setting or a physicians clinic office. Same treatments, but the hospital receives a much higher reimbursement rate.
Suddenly a large hospital network purchases the physicians clinic office practice and the existing population must pay more for the same service. Medicare is a pool of money that public representatives will continue to develop strategies to reduce out flow. Introducing bills that would require Medicare to pay providers the same for a service no matter where it is performed is one of those strategies.
