See my above post — it is the federal government that establishes number of residencies. Also see that 5x doctors will not significantly dent the cost of health Care. The cost of regulation is what is driving the cost of medicine. In most cases physicians salaries are loosely capped by CMS reimbursement.
And even if you have 5x the number of residency spots you would need to increase the number of medical school spots by the same number to fill them
Please refrain from acronyms because those are only for people in the know. Assume you’re dealing with ordinary people.
The FACT that physician salaries are capped is something that market forces could correct. Competition is a good thing. I just don’t need to see a superduper specialist with 3 weeks waiting time just to get a prescription for my foot infection. There has to be some friggen common sense applied.
