Last week during the Physicians Technical Advisory Committee meeting, the Kentucky Department for Medicaid Services announced that limitations on the number of complex E/M services that can be reimbursed to physicians has been removed from the Kentucky Administrative Regulations. This removes the previous regulation that limited the number of level 4 and level 5 E/M services that a physician would be paid for to 2 per patient/per provider/per year. We are being told that the MCOs have already removed these limitations from their reimbursement policies.
GLMS and the KMA have been working diligently over the last few years to address this problematic limitation and GLMS will continue to voice concerns on behalf of our physician members. If you have any questions about this change, please contact our Practice Support department at stephanie.woods@glms.org.

Dr. Who
Dr. Kris Barnsfather took an untraditional route to becoming a physician, first teaching high school. After several miscarriages and seeing things play out from the patient side, she decided to go back to school to pursue a career as an OB-GYN. She cherishes being the calm presence in the delivery room and being able to still use her teaching skills in the clinic and OR. Read more about her story in this month’s Dr. Who in Louisville Medicine here.
