Medicare HAS cut DPM fees.

There is absolutely no question as to the FACT that Medicare has cut DPM fees often. Why would "Stu Pod" question that obvious fact? Or will he demand to see the "statistics"?

Every podiatrist in practice knows this. A simple call to anyone will check this out.

What happens when Medicare cuts again and again into the profit that is left?

You can't refuse medicare fees as it is against the law. But, I am sure you know this as you are a 4th Year Student.

What next, "Stu Pod" for the American doctors? The Canadian docs have their own problems with socialized medicine.
