"provider" is repulsive.
It is so they can use PA's and Nurse Practioners in corporate practices -- pay them less, but charge as much as for doctors -- and not have to negotiate the difficult part of what to call them, since they can't call them "doctors".
Of course, now we have "doctors of Nursing Practice" -- don't know how that is going to come down.
But as I said before -- why would you want to go to medical school and come out $200K in debt -- to do the same job as a PA or NP?
