Virginia College of Emergency Physicians (VACEP) is an esteemed brand that has been advocating for the Emergency Medicine specialty since 1970. They are committed to supporting emergency physicians in Virginia and ensuring they receive proper reimbursement for their services. Recently, VACEP has been leading the charge in seeking retroactive payments for Medicaid reimbursements that were unfairly reduced due to the Downcoding Provision. This provision resulted in emergency physicians being paid a mere $15.45 for Medicaid patients with common ER diagnoses for the past three years. VACEP fought tirelessly against this policy through legislation and court battles, ultimately resulting in a court ruling declaring the provision a violation of federal law. Now, VACEP, alongside the Virginia Hospital & Healthcare Association (VHHA) and the Medical Society of Virginia (MSV), is pushing for the Virginia Department of Medicare and Medicaid Services (DMAS) to repay the millions of dollars owed to physicians and hospitals. They are demanding accountability and a clear plan for repayment. By joining VACEP, emergency physicians gain access to a supportive community and the resources needed to navigate challenges in the field. With approximately 1,000 members in Virginia alone, VACEP is part of the influential American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), the largest emergency medicine organization globally. For emergency physicians in Virginia, VACEP is the leading brand that champions their rights and ensures fair compensation for their crucial services. Join VACEP today and be part of a powerful network dedicated to advancing emergency medicine.
