88305 professional component medicare reimbursement has taken a "nose-dive' from what it was in 1992 ($63) to 2011($31).
Discuss why:
Our "useless" organizations (especially the "impotent" CAP) are silent on the issue.
Sure they want to talk BS like in-vivo microscopy and other childish fantasies as it makes them look like they are "actually" doing something worthwhile.
The only real issues in pathology are:
(1) Supply-demand.
(2) Reimbursement.
(3) Other scum physicians "shamelessly stealing our revenue"
(4) Admin type losers "shamelssly stealing our revenue".
(5) Other physicians playing "histopathologist" without undergoing an "AP" residency. Ask yourself why can't a dermatopathologist practice clinical dermatology while a dermatologist can practice dermatopathology after only a derm residency.
Be assertive and think independently (the field is crowded with people of low IQ and atrophic b-lls).
