BS!
Doctors are notoriously bad at economics. They should stick to medicine. I wonder how they will like being the equivalent of bureaucrats at the DMV? Morons.
OK....I give up...What is a Physician Leader?
It doesn’t even matter, because I don’t necessarily trust physicians to support what’s good for ME rather than what’s good for THEM.
Follow the money...the grants...the employers (government)...the contracts and so forth. This “poll” is the ussual distortion of reality posed by pinheaded LIB apparatchniks. Good God...why aren’t all these communist enablers in jail? Have they no love of Freedom...have they no integrity?
Should have clarified that. Not all doctors are this way, but the ones who end up at the top of various organizations, such as the AMA, tend to be liberal and clueless on economics. Many docs are furious at the new law and see what it will do to our health care.
There is an organization of docs that is anti-Obamacare
“Physician Leaders”is a euphemism for “Doctor who doesn’t actually see patients and practice medicine” .....
As other polls have shown 60% of physicians are against it, I must conclude that the majority of physicians are not physician leaders.
Till their reimbursement is slashed in half, they are forced out of accepting Medicaid and Medicare, won’t be able to accept cash (except under the table) and they are driven out of their specialties into retirement.
The Physician “Leaders” were selected as unbiasedly as the Europeans slected Indian “Chiefs”.
Is this supposed to impress me?
I’m only interested in what ALL practising Doctors believe.
This is as bogus as saying most Cops support gun control because a handfull of politicized Police Chiefs do (There is that word again.)
What is a Physician Leader?
This survey is BS
My brother is a Medical Admin consultant for a number of practices in South Florida. None of the doctors he represents wants ObamaCare
And these are not conservative doctors. My brother has to remind me “OK, chill on the Rush conservative talk around Dr so-and-so” when I meet one his clients. These are quite liberal doctors...but know that ObamaCare pretty much kills their businesses
Most Drs. are crap-scared of ObamaCare
Physician leader = insurance, hospital company executives or academics. Insurance and hospital executives are crony capitalists, and academics are Leftist ideologues. These guys are also AMA members.
Don’t worry, the physicians in private practice get economics and business and they absolutely HATE 0-care.
AHHHHHChhhoooo....sorry, allergen to BS
