My doctor is part of a medical group with the local big hospital. He has been furloughed along with all the other PCPs. This means that if I want to get normal care for my annual bout of bronchitis I have to go to urgent care and sit several hours with all the sick people rather then being able to call him, tell him what I have and have him call my usual prescription into the local pharmacy.

Oh and they can not give me a prescription for the cough syrup that actually works either. It is considered a class something or other narcotic and so is on the list of things they can not write a prescription for.

Just lovely.

Is he NOT allowed to have a private practice? Why can’t you go to his home office like many people used to do?
