In this episode, Dr. Gavin Setzen of Albany ENT & Allergy Services addresses the current landscape of insurance reimbursement with host Dr. Ashley Agan.
The episode opens by reviewing the current state of healthcare financing, where climbing costs, declining reimbursement, and continued consolidation of medical groups confront physician-owned private practices. Mindful of this context, Dr. Setzen describes his experiences tackling reimbursement challenges. Recounting his successes, Dr. Setzen encourages physicians to base their claims in evidence-based medicine, enlist allies (such as patient unions), and develop relationships with insurers. He then provides strategies to efficiently manage Prior Authorizations, including Peer-to-Peer conversations. Finally, Dr. Setzen shares how coordinating one’s reimbursement strategy with colleagues and advocacy groups helps increase odds of success.
