Leslie,
The reason we do half the garbage we do is because 90% of physicians and 100% of medical associations don't have the testicular fortitude to stand up for the profession. As a result, we're led around by the nose by every insurance company, PBM, government agency that has a new whim. I can imagine the laughter around the table as they discuss the next stupid thing they can make us do. Aside from your personal integrity and complaining to a few fellow curmudgeons on the AC forum what are you going to do about it. You certainly can't look for representation at the national or state level around here. There's a reason only 10% of practicing MDs belong to the AMA, while over 70% of dentists belong to the ADA. The ADA actually represents the interests of dentists, like any other trade association should. Maybe you could take your concerns all the way to the attorney general. Oh, wait...
