I know most of the doctors I see are over the age of 50 and thus could easily retire. I also know that some of my doctors have quit and gone into teaching as the hours and stress are a lot better. There are also positions in research, consulting, drug companies, lecutring, and other such fields, also the army is always looking for doctors.
The Obama Administration needs to study the law of Unintended Consequences. Massive Doctor retirments plus a massive amount of new patients = Super Long lines (probaby weeks or months in queues). DOH!
But only if the are permitted to do so ....
Investor Business Daily reported the same thing a few months ago.........
