facility fees going to go bye-bye?

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/07/upshot/medicare-proposal-would-even-out-doctors-pay.html?mabReward=A3&action=click&pgtype=Homepage®ion=CColumn&module=Recommendation&src=rechp&WT.nav=RecEngine&_r=2&abt=0002&abg=0 Interesting article. Hospital facility fees do put considerable $$ into the hospital coffers, not to the docs. Would hospitals jettison docs as employees if they could NOT recoup facility fees? Maybe the less productive docs would be booted?
