Zak--
We are dealing with parasites and criminals (insurance companies, drug companies and all the hanger's on like Express Scripts) -- they aren't interested in better medical care, or less cost to patients. They are only interested in profits for themselves.
Of course requiring people to come in for a visit to fill out forms (if you really think it is your job to fill out forms) is "kosher". You have to get a lot of information, and you have to get it from the patient, or else you can't properly fill out the form.
This is war -- but so far, the doctors are mostly just lying down and taking it. I long for the day when the medical profession stands up as men and women and tells these people to shove it.
