It's like a minister who is just shocked he has a congregation of sinners. Correct me if I'm wrong but an average ER salary of $250, 000 is not a bad compensation.<br />And , yes, Ocare is uncharted waters. But move forward. The present system isn't working.<br />Just so you know, I am an a nurse and my father was a doc.<br />The " Go Mitt" really slayed me. This from a man who said we have a healthcare system delivery in place...just go to the ER.

I swear it was around here somewhere....<br /><br />Sorry, but medicine is hardly the "hardest profession in the world". Your training isn't that much harder or longer than PhD programs, pretty much guarantees work at completion (unlike those other fields), and pays really well compared to those other fields. If you want a specific example, think Chemistry.<br /><br />Second, there is no doctor shortage. We have plenty of doctors. There are shortages of certain types of doctors and doctors in certain areas. <br /><br />Third, if you want more doctors, there is no shortage of students applying to medical school (see the stats). However, I don't see those schools accepting more students (unlike the vet and pharmacy schools). <br /><br />Don't give me the excuse that there are no "slots" or that the government won't pay for it. You don't get to complain about government interference and then demand money from it without being called a hypocrite. After all, if there is a shortage and it isn't being filled by the market, maybe there really isn't one of either.<br /><br />I doubt doctors will do anything other than whine. It's a pretty good gig. Not as good as it used to be but still quite good. And in the end, the only way to reduce costs in the system is to reduce unneeded use of the system. Less use of the system means less income for everyone. That includes doctors. I would have thought this was obvious.<br /><br />-MVAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-29366370247997119272012-10-31T06:21:13.885-05:002012-10-31T06:21:13.885-05:00Had a first year Med Student in my "Office&qu...Had a first year Med Student in my "Office" the other day.<br />We talked about 1st year experiences, Gross Anatomy, the White Coat, being called Doctor, Pawning your TV for gas money...<br />Just kidding.<br />We didn't get white coats until THIRD year.<br />And then I gave him $30 for his shitty 32 inch Vizeo, which corrected for inflation, is less than I got for my shitty 19 inch Magnavox.<br />And as he drove off, I spotted the "O" bumper sticker, and thought to myself.<br />"Dammit, I should have only gave him $20"<br /><br />Frank "thats DR Shylock" DrackmanFrank Drackmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17846499693803159688noreply@blogger.com
