Refund rates have dropped so low that many doctors【C15】______not to treat Medicaid patients. The Legislature’s bill seeks to【C16】______those issues with the requirement that plans include specialists and the higher repayment rates to doctors.
Another good news for doctors and hospitals is a【C17】______that limits the amount they would have to pay out in【C18】______caused by not proper practice, for pain and suffering to $300,000 for each Medicaid claimant. Senator Negron said the upper limit was【C19】______because doctors who treat Medicaid patients are basically providing a public service and should be【C20】______to do so.
