MGMA 2018 Regulatory Burden Report

About the Survey  

The federal government has focused on decreasing the  regulatory burden on medical group practices. MGMA has long been a champion for decreased regulatory burden and increased administrative simplification and standardization in order to achieve a more efficient and effective care delivery process for patients  and providers.

The findings presented here will be used in MGMA’s advocacy  efforts to inform Congress, the Administration, and the larger healthcare community about the impact of federal policies and regulations on medical groups. This study is the second in a series to assess the burden level of regulatory processes for physician practices participating in Medicare programs, following MGMA’s  2017 Regulatory Burden survey.

About the Respondents

The survey includes responses from 426 individuals from group practices with the largest representation in independent medical practices and in groups with 6 to 20 physicians.
