The AMA will return the favor of the health insurance industry by rating the business practices of health insurance plans that it says can slow payments to doctors and often confuse consumers.
The national physicians group will provide a report card that examines the timeliness and accuracy of claims processing of 7 national health insurance companies, as well as Medicare.
While the report card is aimed at helping doctors negotiate contracts with health insurers and reducing claims-related costs, the AMA said it also could lead to improvements in consumers' understanding of their medical bills and how medical care is priced.
