Medicare & Cash Pay Medicine: What Every Doctor Needs to Know

In this episode, I break down the messy world of Medicare and cash-based practices — because if you’re building a private medical practice or a walk-in clinic like me, you’re gonna run into this headache. I cover the 3 main options every physician faces: Ignore Medicare patients completely Officially opt out (and what that really means) Become a non-participating provider (and the billing mess that comes with it) It’s complicated — even if you hire a lawyer. I explain how Part B vs. Part C (Medicare Advantage) changes the game, what you legally HAVE to bill, and what you can skip if you stay in the cash lane. If you’re thinking about starting your own practice or walk-in clinic, this episode is a must-listen. You’ll avoid costly mistakes and know exactly what’s coming. 👉 More resources, coaching, and my online course at: https://www.digitalnomadphysician.com
