More on the billing morass

Dr. Rob with more insight on the billing and coding mess. I like the cooked frog analogy:

A discussion of the current situation leads to the question: how did we get to this point? The system did not appear out of the air; no one was forced to accept it at gunpoint. The change was slow.

I have heard that if you drop a frog into a pot of hot water, it will try to jump out. If, however, you put the frog in warm water and heat it up slowly, you end up with a cooked frog. In the same way, what seemed to be a reasonable system has gotten terribly out of control and is now cooking us.
