For not taking ANY new patients? Not going to happen anytime in the near future, there is no mechanism in place NOW to accomplish that, though it is exactly what is coming, IF enough doctors kowtow to the government.
The wisest course is to plan on moving the practice to a Caribbean island and specialize.
The government cannot replace the GOOD doctors that resist, plan and execute a Galt.
The government can only put out a bunch of affirmative action enslaved by debt quack hacks to kill off the population, and they won't keep it secret for long.
Taxes will be astronomical, doctors will be paupers forever working intern hours, and jackboots and malingerers will be rolling in entitlement dough. If you're really sick and unconnected, you're dead.
How's this: Doctors turn into care mills, a cursory exam, a prescription and bada-bing! out the door. In other words the care will suck for everyone within a few years.
Umm, did you read my whole post? I was being sarcastic. I don’t use the /s tag so popular among freepers.
