Insurance cooperatives will also remove all MDs from private practice if their only ‘option’ is to be in a cooperative with vastly reduced income prospects such as with the already inadequate Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements. Physicians in private practice now account for 10 additional jobs to their own self-employed numbers, and the additional jobs they support will also disappear if cooperatives are established...this amounts to several million jobs. No study has been published or ordered to determine the effect of the impact on private practice and the results on what will be resultant realities of patient choices of physician. The Dems want to get rid of at least 90% of medical specialists by any means possible. THe people they employ and peripherally related jobs will disappear by the millions.

That’s true. Very little is being said about how this will affect the number and quality of health care workers in the future. We have a shortage NOW. With an aging demographic it is only going to get worse. Health professionals are currently leaving the profession due to high costs, especially malpractice insurance. We need tort reform.

“The Dems want to get rid of at least 90% of medical specialists by any means possible.”

Wrong. They dont wish to get rid of them at all. They simply want to CONTROL them. Specialists won’t go away..they will simply revert to being told what to do by the State, similar to Canada, but much worse.

But thats not the part that frightens me..the part that scares me is that the government will have access to your banking details. Once that happens, game over. Nothing left to take over, except your soul. And I suspect someone ELSE will move govt out of the way in order to accomplish that.
