Description
Abstract: Along with collecting traditional copayments, physician practices must now worry about steadily increasing patient deductibles. One survey reveals that deductibles as a percentage of the contracted rate increased by at least 20% across the country from 2009 to 2011.

A sidebar looks at a survey that spotlights patient attitudes toward their payment obligations.
