Despite the efforts of the surgical community to delay implementation by holding out for the \"best\" data possible, we believe that the effect of a delay would be to perpetuate a system that provides excessive reimbursement for some physicians services while grossly undervaluing others.","Title":"Practice Expense Payments on Resource Costs (HR3859).
