That is mostly propaganda. Not true in my town. Right wing and right wing docs trying to scare people. Which is ugly because ithey are doing it to prevent universal health care and a public option which is essential. we must have affordable universal health care.

But in any event, society must provide universal health care even if it means building medical schools and educating doctors with government money. I think we need more medical schools regardless. There are many more qualified medical student applicants than schools to take them and some kids cannot afford it. That is easily taken care of by government.

If we quaruple the number of doctors prices will go down and docs will take less. Docs charge too much now. Good old capitalism.

<< AAPS reports that thousands of physicians have opted out of Medicare. It is a serious decision that each one of them must make because they are discontinuing providing care to some patients. It is understandable why they may choose to do so and is a problem that must be addressed.

I am not aware of any doctors loving Medicare but naturally only a small group of them and comments made by my daughter.

I would imagine that there are Drs with small practices that want lower paying patients that will help fill their hours so, there will be two opinions regarding this issue.
