>> The problem is that primary care pays much less than the specialties but the work conditions are horrendous. There is not enough money in... A key reason it doesn't pay enough is that primary care doctors seeing Medicare/Medicaid patients are not adequately paid. Why? Because RBRVS fees are set by a panel that contains too much focus on specialties other than FP/PCP. Ophthalmologists are well represented, of course, as are Cardiologists. Surprise, no Psychiatrists, though. It is what happens when government is in control of the money. The money is spewed, not according to any reasonable arrangement or plan, but based on political power. Primary care, which is more involved in patient care than any other specialty, gets screwed. So, we will all be seeing nurses instead of doctors. American health care is declining very rapidly.
