So, I've heard that the going rate for outreach specimens is 40% of Medicare in our area. So, a colon, cervical, or skin biopsy which Medicare would normally pay around $50 for will get you $20.
To put things in perspective, a guy fresh out of residency, being paid $150,000 (which is kind of low) would have to sign out 7500 biopsies/year to earn his keep.
What do you think?
Who accepts these contracts?
