People in the .gov agencies are in it for the power and control.

Meanwhile, a preview of coming attractions from across The Pond...

Fury as UK's top doctor says patients will 'GET USED' to not seeing their GP face-to-face - as he admits many now only work three days a week

Let's hear it for socialized medicine.

Clap for carers!

Ping. This is an important look into the mechanics of Ivermectin suppression.

Summary: doctors who accept Medicare and Medicaid patients can be absolutely screwed by regulators if they say a word that displeases the feds.

Before Medicare, you'd simply write it off as your good neighbor duty. Now you don't get a choice. CMMS (the actual administrative agency) requires you to send a bill. Twice. Or maybe three times. Whatever it takes to turn the bill into bad debt. Then you have to send it to a collection agency. Your only alternative is for your group to bring it up in its Board meeting and declare it a write-off that gets noted in the minutes.

the only point I'd bring up on this is, for those not on medicare or medicade, you have to be your own patient advocate. Any public hospital that accepts federal funding MUST write off a certain percentage of 'charity'. (which they in turn write off on their corporate taxes). BUT, you have to know enough to navigate the hospital's billing system to get your request for charity so you don't end up with collection agencies on your phone every two days. Most hospitals have an onsite patient advocate or information officer. They would be your contact person to explore the charity application details. Good luck.

I believe the govt is now threatening medical licensing of any MD who prescribes Ivermectin.

Why do “Doctors” support covid panic and the CDC?

Why do “Teachers” want to teach critical race theory and force children into masks?

Why does “Law Enforcement” protect rioters and imprison patriots?

I expect you’ll find they all have the same answer.

There are literally millions of physicians around the world, and the great bulk of them truly wish to treat their patients well.

99% of fbi are good guys and gals

Bureaucratic rep tape, rules and regs of the medical industry that went through a fundamental transformation by obamacare?

In a communist country like ours, that’s what doctors do, i.e., do as they’re told by Dear Leader.

He’s actually being generous towards the ‘regulators’, probably because he doesn’t want to question their motivations. But I will. If you work for the government, you’ll get paid a decent salary, but not enough to buy Van Gough paintings or dream houses on the Mediterranean. So you’re in it for the NEXT JOB, which, hopefully, is in Bid Med, where the BIG DOLLARS are. And how will Big Med judge you when hiring...how else, by how ‘nice’ you were to them in your government job.

What’s scary is that THE SAME deal exists for diabetes, and maybe cancer (although I don’t have evidence for cancer).

Few doctors are independent practitioners. Their corporate owners are severely controlled by State, local, and federal government, not to mention insurance companies.

Their insurance is being leveraged against them.

“You get these people jabbed or else you lose your LocalCare coverage.”

Net outcome, don’t trust your doctor.

He’s right. The regulations from the agencies are strangling decent medicine. But it cuts both ways. There is a HUGE amount of fraud in medical billing. There is also tremendous amounts of incompetence all over the med world. From docs down to the phone operators and IT pros...

We have imperfect regulators and regulations trying to minimize costs and maximize services they (we)are paying for performed by an imperfect industry. What could go wrong?

The most galling aspects is that rules get made for everyone based on an anomalous event in some small town...and everyone has to expect to be prepared for same event. Total overreach and knee-jerk reactive governance.

BTW...univ. of southern cal...offers a doctorate program in Regulatory Science....

i’ve only had 1 doctor bring up the vaccine to me.
I saw 5 different docs and 1 emergency room visit in July, and only the ENT pushed the issue.
