With a large number of physicians treating Medicare patients nationwide, the cuts could add up to billions of dollars less over the course of 2023. This pay cut could lead to fewer incentives for professional physicians to work with Medicare patients, leading to longer wait times and other access issues that can negatively affect patient care.
