One great thing about being an MD vs a podiatrist. If one bills 99348 in NYS and some other states approx 65% to 70% get denied and this prepayment situation does not apply to MD's
The subject matter of preaudits for podiatrists was mentioned on Pod Post a website full of positive information. To me positive information represents information allowing current students to achieve the degrees most likely to be not under pre audits by medicare.
This is one reason why having an MD or DO degree is so much better than having a DPM degree. Check these statistics do a google search on the NGS website and look the statistics up yourself and confirm them.
If parity is to exist then why not demonstrate uniform education and training as a medical student so as to get an MD degree?
Why not check out the article in podiatry post:
Confessions of a retired podiatrist new grads will make no money I feel has a lot of important info.
So much debt and what if one does not get a match how do they get licensed and pay off student loans?
If they were MD's then if they did not get matched with a residency specializing in foot care they might
get matched in a different field to get licensed to attempt to pay off student loans. But if podiatry schools were to close
after allowing the remaining students to finish and graduate then everyone else entering the field would get MD and
DO degrees by finishing Medical School.
Many years ago things were different and one could get licensed right out of podiatric medical school in many states.
By the way, I love practicing and treating the feet. I just am thinking of all the people I helped. If it were the 1980's and
I could do it all over again I would. But now in the 2015 era things are different. High tuition high loans
chance of not getting an opportunity to get licensed in many states. Why have podiatric medical schools where
people could end up suffering economically without a way of paying back student loans?
By the way being board certified in podiatric medicine
I just feel that people should never be critical of any individual because it is never good to hurt anyone's feelings.
