They are going to screw up pathology billing for the rest of us. Urologists that own their own pathologists all biopsy 12 different spots and put it in 12 different containers, resulting in a pathology bill that is way over 1000 (for T and P). GI groups do similar with 12-20 biopsies per colon. Medicare is going to shut this down and screw up how real pathologists are compensated for doing multiple specimens in true complicated cases, like a TAHBSO for malignancy. **** all gastros and uros who open up POD labs and **** all pathologists who take those jobs.
