Medicare HMOs using new funds to boost physician pay
The diagnosis: "Baumol's disease."

Baumol's Disease...

An illness that is fatal to the Pocket Book
of American Patients.....

"Baumol's principles hold that new technologies
in health care, unlike productivity-increasing technologies
in industries such as banking or insurance, will only add
to costs and consume more of a doctor's time.......

.....This is the heart of Baumol's cost disease.
If doctors are to have anything like a stable standard of
living, their services need to become more expensive.
The handicraft nature of medical care, and the static
nature of our services, means higher health care costs are
an economic fact of life if doctors are going to maintain
their incomes.


Scott Gottlieb, MD, is Da Man....way to go Scott...!
