Bulletin MED228 expands virtual care, in response to a request from @albertadoctors. The change means docs can bill phone/video visits for palliative care & chronic pain, which previously they could only bill for in-person visits. https://twitter.com/_Norwegian_Blue/status/1264412224329670656">https://twitter.com/_Norwegia...
We expanded. Access. To. Virtual. Care.
At request of AMA.
Yet there& #39;s a string of vague complaints about it, incl from people claiming to be docs.
A great example of the constant stream of misinfo spewed by AMA & proxies, like the ink cloud from a startled squid.
A few docs claim they& #39;re surprised, as if Bulletins were secret. That& #39;s just absurd. Bulletins are shared w AMA, CPSA, http://alberta.ca"> http://alberta.ca , H-Link (docs& #39; billing site). It& #39;s part of docs& #39; job to know them.
Btw - MED228 is the 1st Bulletin in a month; not too many to follow.
