- W4362657715 abstract "In 2022, media reports alleged that doctors, particularly general practitioners (GPs), are defrauding Medicare, claiming $8 billion lost through fraud/non-compliance. This study examined Medicare Benefits Schedule billing patterns by consultation length to estimate overcharging or undercharging by GPs, and the cost/savings to Medicare.A subset of data from the Bettering the Evaluation And Care of Health (BEACH) program from 2013 to 2016, which included length of consultation information, was analysed.Of 89,765 consultations, GPs undercharged 11.8% of consultations and overcharged 1.6%. Of the 2760 GPs sampled, 816 (29.6%) overcharged at least once and 2334 (84.6%) undercharged at least once. Of the GPs who overcharged at least once, 85.4% also undercharged. The total effect of GP undercharging and overcharging was a net saving of $351.7 million to Medicare.This study shows that GPs undercharging and overcharging saved Medicare over one-third of a billion dollars in 2021-22. The findings of this study do not support the media claims of widespread fraud by GPs." @default.
