Title: Acceptance of new patients with public and private insurance by office-based physicians: United States, 2013.
Abstract: Physician acceptance of new Medicaid patients has shown to be lower than acceptance of new Medicare patients or new privately insured patients. Acceptance of new Medicaid patients also has shown to be lower in states with lower Medicaid payment rates to physicians. Using the 2013 National Electronic Health Records Survey (NEHRS), this report summarizes physician acceptance of new patients with Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance. It also summarizes information on how these acceptance rates vary by select physician characteristics and by state.
