I believe that price is above the first-year cost of AC for a single provider (which includes Tech Support for that year).
The problem is really that everyone wants to suck an annuity stream out of the limited number of $$s in a physician's pocket and becomes a big cause of the supposedly looming shortage of PCPs. well, who really wants to go to school for all those demanding years, and then be told to work in a demanding environment with zero tolerance for errors and you either take a vow of poverty or contract to be compensated on a piece-work basis. Oh, and all risk is yours personally, not the employer's which is demanding that you see that patient in only 5 minutes.
I would tell my children to go into something else.
