The American Medical Association surveyed nearly 9,000 physicians earlier this year and discovered that seniors are going to find it more difficult to get medical care when Medicare cuts go into effect next year. That’s because doctors are going to see fewer and fewer patients covered by Medicare.
“The AMA is deeply concerned by the alarming news that 60 percent of America’s physicians will be forced to limit the number of new Medicare patients they will be able to care for next year when Medicare cuts physician payments,” said Cecil B. Wilson, M.D., AMA board chair.
