Tell us - Why Are You Against Government Medicine?

Call our hotline at (800) 635-1196 or click below to post your comments.

Most of the big health care reform proposals include government plans (like Medicare-for-all), mandates for participation, and a National Health Board to set comparative effectiveness like the British system.

Please tell us what impact these would have on your practice & patients. Use specific examples if you want. (For example, my 87-year old father would probably NOT be cleared for a triple bypass.)

Here are some questions to help get you started:
Will it change how you practice?
Consider quitting medicine?
Impact on patients?

On July 16th the AMA endorsed the House legislation that would in effect establish government medicine.

Why did they do it? They sold out for a few percentage points in the SGR.

Do you think a miniscule raise --that can be revoked at any time -- is worth selling out for government control of medicine and your profession?
