Why are none of the office fees reimbursed by Medicare?
I have chosen to opt out of Medicare. Opting in to Medicare would require that I accept the low Medicare rates and require that I bill Medicare for my services, which in turn would raise my overhead and result in higher fees for my other patients. Unfortunately, opting out of Medicare means that my patients are not allowed to submit a bill to Medicare for reimbursement of expenses paid to me (this is a federal government regulation).
