Dr. Alician Pellegrin noted to the Times last week that a representative from the state Department of Health and Hospitals indicated to her that an error had been corrected in the Magellan reimbursement schedule. According to their plan, medical psychologists were to receive slightly higher reimbursement for psychological testing compared to other psychologists. Pellegrin said this had now been corrected by the department, although no explanation was given for how the mistake happened. Both psychologists and medical psychologists are reimbursed at 80 percent of that of a physician, based on information from Magellan, Pellegrin said. (See February issue of the Times for background.)
