Will Services Be Cut?

[TonyC]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone knew if "certain health care providers" will be severely hurt or even DROPPED from the providers list when OBama-care takes effect?

Ex.
-Chiropractors
-Psychologist, Psychiatrists
-Physical Therapists
-etc

Anyone know?

....thanks very much!

All of those professions are covered under O'care plan. (I don't know about chiropractic though)
Whether or not the doctor signs a contract at reduced network rates to join the HMO / ACO is a different story.

As they say, you may have an insurance card in your pocket, that covers all services, but you may not be able to find a doctor that takes your plan.

Many chiros around here are not accepting insurance any more, but having their patients file for reimbursements after the treatments. Too many short payments are occurring, and they don't want to chase money any more - and are letting their patients chase it from the insurer.
