Linda one more thing, If there are no new patients how often do you specify in the contract that you will review the sliding scale?do you state how often, but inbetween that time it may change depending on volume of new patients?
Linda, in regards to the above statement, I was wondering how much you would suggest charging for this particular scenario - per month that is? I have a similiar situation and did a %, however, given all the chatter, it seems as if I may need to switch over when contract is re-uped...I am unsure how to calculate what to charge...he is strictly Medicaid at this time and adding new patients pretty consistently. He is very happy with our situation as he had not collected a dime for the last year for all of his work! Thanks!
