WASHINGTON July 14, 2023 – Many of the provisions in the proposed 2024 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) will help to better recognize the value that internal medicine physicians provide to their patients and have the potential to improve continuity and coordination of care, says the American College of Physicians (ACP).
