TMA Study Finds BCBS Rating Deceptive and Invalid

The results of an interesting study by TMA finds that Blue Cross/Blue Shields rating system to be flawed.  See the story at this link: http://www.texmed.org/Template.aspx?id=6758

It has been my experience over the past two years, the Texas Medical Board has openned a number of cases that we strongly believe are based on complaints by insurance companies, including BCBS.  Moreover, evidence of the BlueChoice Solutions rating system has been used by Board staff and consultants as evidence against my clients. 

I hope something comes about as a result of this report.  I have been doing this long enough not to get my hopes up, but this report is a useful tool.
