How do private practices go about increasing their $/wRVU?
The .gov payers (Medicare, Tricare etc.) are what they are. With private insurers you can push for higher reimbursements. One way to do that i to cancel their contract every time it comes up for renewal and to only sign if they up the pay. If they let it expire, their subscribers start getting hammered with out of network charges for imaging that they had little choice of where to get. Subscribers complain to their employer bout their shitty health insurance and the state insurance commissioner etc. You won’t make many friends but after some bluffing and bloviation the insurers will up the offer to get you to come back into the fold.
