Ymrch 9, 1992 <br /> <br />MEMO <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br />John Witherspoon <br />William F. Pilkington~ <br />Public Health Legislative Goals <br /> <br />Medicaid/Medicare Revisions <br /> <br />Nutrition counseling services should be a reimbursable <br />service under Medicaid/Medicare. Because nutrition <br />counseling is not a reimbursable service, many needy <br />patients do not receive nutrition counseling. <br /> <br />The public health physicians' services should be <br />reimbursed by Medicaid at the same rate as the rate <br />paid private physicians. Currently, Medicaid pays the <br />public health physician at a rate lower than private <br />physicians. <br /> <br />ft <br /> <br /> 19 <br /> <br /> Cabarru$ CounI¥ Public Heal'~h Depamment <br />7;5 C~b~rrus Avenue ',','es~. ® C/o,nco!,d.
