MGMA champions physician payment policies that establish appropriate reimbursement rates. Rates should, at a minimum, cover the cost of delivering care and be regularly updated commensurate with inflation. Policies should support medical practices' ability to provide a full range of ancillary services, such as imaging, testing, and physician administered drugs. MGMA works to protect medical practices against predatory business practices and supports regulatory flexibilities that allow practices to focus their time and resources on delivering high-quality and efficient care.
