Yep...hubby and I have joked in the past about level A, B and C docs. The A docs will definitely retire or flee, as will most of the B docs...that will leave the remainder of the B docs and the C docs. Ouch.
We'll probably have to combine health care with tourism to continue to see our family doctor.
I can see it now, Medical Hotwire.com and Medical Hotels.com!
You're exactly right. And soon the "A" level doctors will be pretty much extinct, because who in their right mind would want to go through the extensive training & rigor and years of training, to become a top notch surgeon (brain, heart, pulmonary, general surgeon, etc).
Then where will the ultra rich go?
I live in Rochester, MN home of world famous Mayo Clinic. I remember once seeing a lavishly decked out Boeing 747 Royal Jordanian airliner that brought in King Hussein and 200 or so of family, servants, staff, etc. Often times the Kahler hotel will have entire floors blocked off to accomodate muzzies from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, etc.
Where are the mega rich muzzies going to go once the U.S. loses its top notch physicians & surgeons? I doubt they want to risk their healthcare by going to Canadian or British or French socialized medicine. Who knows, maybe the commie-muslim pig 0dumbo will start to roll back his deathcare once the rich fat cat muzzies start to complain and tell him to go back to the way it used to be!
