The issue, I suspect, is, who defines "reasonable" here? Is it
like Blue Cross who decides that "UCR" is 50% of what every MD
charges, and refuses to justify their decision?

I suspect some here have already "been there, done that"...

Then there is the issue of getting paid in a timely manner,
Prompt Payment Act or not.
