Bravo Jon --
But only doctors can actually see the patient!
The administrators want our power, but they will have to be contented with the money, because that's all they are going to get....
That is the money quote.
Even with Payers attempting to coerce or intimdate practices into taking government pay, ther eis a relative explosion in offerings that fall outside of their reach.
As I was told again yesterday, with new plans having a 5-10K deductible, folks are once again interested in cash payment, membership, preventative care. Those patients effectively have a catastrophic coverage, and will otherwise not afford to use it.
The clowns in the clown car will realize too late that the circus has left town without them.
