Changes Needed in Medicare Payments to Physicians Under the End Stage Renal Disease Program
Gao ID: HRD-85-14A February 1, 1985This is a supplement to a report on changes needed in Medicare payments to physicians under the End Stage Renal Disease program which contains the results of a questionnaire sent to program beneficiaries and renal physicians and includes an analysis of selected responses to the questionnaire.
The questionnaire produced substantial information on patients' and physicians' practices which did not specifically relate to matters discussed in the report. However, the information should be useful to those involved with the program.
