(ZEROHEDGE) – As if the cost of healthcare rising wasn’t enough on its own, some doctors offices are now charging their patients for administrative tasks, according to a new report from Fox News.
Doctors say administrative tasks are “taking more time away from patient care”, according to the article, which they say hurts their bottom line.
Medical experts informed FOX Business that some are now charging patients for services such as email consultations and additional paperwork, aiming to offset losses from decreased in-person visits.
