My doctor told me this week that he may have to cut staff. He said it may come to patients seeing a physician practitioner before some one will see a medical doctor.
Way to go OBummer!
We’re going to see a “planetary” practice approach pretty quickly. The physician will be in the center, surrounded by Nurse Practitioners. They’ll do the work up, he’ll drop by to verify and sign the prescriptions. It’ll be a simple, efficient, solution that’ll permit primary care practices to survive with the reduced compensation.
What it won’t be is good medicine.
