The end result will be “Shut up and sneak”
Where people will sneak off to see a “black market doctor” to get a 1st opinion before even attempting to see a “System doctor”...
Yep. And the black market doctors are going to prosper, but at risk for them and their patients.
DR. JONES: “Mrs. Smith, I see a freshly healed scar on your leg...I don’t see any evidence of a recent procedure on your GMR (Government Medical Record)...can you explain that to us? You do know what the penalties are for avoiding the government care systems, and we can refuse to treat any complications incurred elsewhere. Before you say anything, I must tell you that our conversations are not privileged, and anything you say may be used against you.”
