More practices refusing to accept credit cards from patients
American Medical News , 06/23/09
Cook B - Even as patients increasingly are paying for care out of their own pockets, more practices are stopping them from doing so with one of the most-used items in their wallets: credit cards. A third of physician practices did not accept credit cards as of April, up 5 points from 28% last year, according to SK&A Information Services. The company, which aggregates data on physician practices for pharmaceutical and device manufacturing companies, did a telephone survey of 202,650 physician offices nationwide at the behest of an undisclosed credit-card company client.
