Research Project Description:
There are sparse data regarding the aggregate payments to Rheumatology providers by Medicare. The release of Medicare Provider Utilization and Payment Data (PUF) from 2012 provides an opportunity to analyze the degree of Rheumatology provider participation in the care of Medicare patients as well as payment for services rendered. This retrospective cross sectional analysis may help define the role of Rheumatologists in the care of Medicare beneficiaries and compare it to other specialties involved in musculoskeletal care. It may also inform on the current and projected Rheumatology workforce involved in Rheumatologic care of Medicare beneficiaries. No patient-specific identifiers are included within these datasets, therefore we are seeking exempt review for this project.
