three apparently full time staffers, plus rent. based on our EOBs, insurance reimbursement rates for well visits (checkups) seem to be like $70.

plus malp insurance and whatever other insurance he needs.

how the fuck does he make any money?

Is he's that old he may have patients who still pay cash. I know one doc who still had cash-paying clients from the 1980s until he retired recently. He would treat multiple generations of patients from the same family like your doc

his practice might be owned by a hospital group who pays him a performance based salary. they don't need his office to be profitable, they make money on the specialist referrals. primary care = lead gen

he's probably making the most money of any pediatrician in town. these types of docs are old school from the '80's and '90's. they're fucking killing it beyond belief. i know a few personally who have offices exactly as you describe

edit: assuming this bro is doing "procedures"

I don’t think he does procedures. What kind of procedures would a ped do? His office doesn’t look like it does anything serious.

Even if they do procedures they can't get reimbursed at the same rate as specialists or even use the same billing codes. I know a primary care doc who freezes warts, but he only gets reimbursed 1/3 what dermatologists get for the same thing

Then he's not billing to Medicare. A small office still needs to shell out $25-40k/yr for the tech shit they need to be Medicare compliant. You can't do jack shit with paper records and fax machines anymore

solo peds doesn't really make money

40% of kids are on medicaid and probably 80% of "sick" kids who consume healthcare

to be financially viable, you need high rate of commercial insurance and high volume (30 patients a day)

I live in MFH and have an AMAZING pediatrician who is located literally next door to my kids' school. This doc has two nurse practitioners and one Shaniqua who runs the desk. She responds to emails within an hour during business hours and is reachable the few times we've had issues after hours.

She started a concierge medicine program for $2,500 per year. You get her personal cell phone number and extra time at appointments, etc. Because she's so great and normally available, it seems like a trap for neurotic Jews and Asians. So we haven't done it, but I almost want to just to make sure she stays afloat. But her husband is a specialist who has a practice in the same building, which I think is what makes this sustainable.

This post is unintentionally hilarious.

MFH lawyer’s circle of concern includes worrying that a doctor with three employees who charges $2500 for access to her cell phone is barely scraping by.

Doctors fooled you by making you think their insurance is particularly high. It's only like that in a few specialties.
