Also, physicians can now establish a more balanced lifewhere doing so used to be next to impossible. When someone else runs the practice, you don't have to deal with administrative hassles. Most physicians find themselves woefully unprepared for a practice's legal and business issues and often find it more stressful than running a code. In my case, I don't know what a patient owes when I enter the room, and an unpaid bill doesn't influence my care of that individual. Should any unpaid balance be sent to collections, they blame the health-care system, not me.
Employers offer quite a bit of professional support too.
They make sure you're compliant with OSHA, ADA, CLIA and every other letter in the alphabet. True, Christian physicians should be exemplary in their professional standing and conduct. But sad to say, some are not. Shared risk with an employer often means strict adherence to the current rules of the day, which can improve your image and keep you out of Medicare jail.
