While several practices and systems have made the decision to cut ties with Medicare patients in the last year, a large portion of practitioners are actually in favor of taking on more patients, the report found.
While 31% of physicians are supportive of accepting more Medicare patients, an additional 17% are very supportive, and 23% are at least somewhat supportive.
Just 29% of physicians are slightly supportive (16%) or not at all supportive (13%) of accepting additional Medicare patients.
