I'll just bet that the AMA's lobbyists had their bills paid on time.
Guess they didn't read the bill either.
“Hmmm. Is this the same AMA that worked so hard for the passage of this legislation? The group that blindsided its politically clueless membership, selling them and their services like that of slaves to the crude giant of Bureaucracy?”
Out here in N Californicator land, the graduates of UC Med School/Berkley/Gay Frisco are left progressives, and they control many of the private practice HMO’s.
The UC Med School doctors pushed Obozo Scare, and some doctors in Gay Frisco helped Pelosi in writing the bill.
These left wing doctors and their wives are real PIA progressives to deal with on any level.
Like NY City rat voters, these left wing doctors are getting what they voted for, not what they thought they were getting.
