I agree. Tons of power. It's crazy that we aren't. And, I know it would be risky. But, most things that have changed history required sacrifices.
I still think it also comes down to educating the patients. They won't be too sympathetic to some sort of strike if they think we all make $500,000 a year and have three sports cars. Every once in awhile the topic comes up with a Mainecare patient. They are shocked when they hear what we are reimbursed compared to private insurance.
