Because of Obamacare

Mine retired early

My wife is currently in med school.  Doctors are getting out of the business at an alarming rate because of Obamacare.






She's very concerned about what the state of medicine will be when she finishes her residency.

It will be like the DMV.

seriously though it will happen where primary care is not done by a doctor. it will be a P.A. or nurse practitioner and a Dr. will be the two up person. Hope everyone enjoys not seeing a real Dr. for most of their needs.

My doctor told me that if it wasn't for his loyalty towards his patients, he'd retire.  I do know he isn't accepting new patients, hasn't for some time.

She should be.  

Is it too late to switch majors or go into research or something else?

She starts her rotations this coming July, so there's no changing things now.







At least I'll have a good doctor?

Specialize, specialize, specialize. Hopefully she goes into something that has very little encroachment from mid-level providers. Fellowship always helps, but doesn't always pay off financially depending in what it is. Does she have Any interest in academics? There tends to be a bit more stability there, but the pay can suck ass too.

quite simply american doctors will work for cash and off the network insurance companies that will basically ignore the obamacare and everyone will simply not buy insurance, pay the extra tax and work underground.

poor people will still get shit medical care and the lower middle class will go from good health care to the same shitty stuff the poor have.

upper middle class will pay extra and still get good medical care.

your wife should prepare to do general practice for cash and have a referral network to cash specialists for those who can afford it and a kiosk in her office where those who can't afford good care sign up for obamacare platinum for one year to hopefully get treated before they die.

I say go general practice for cash.

lower overhead, no paperwork, can develop a real practice with real patients and less headaches.

less money, possibily, but dentists and plastic surgeons do very well in the same model.

specialists making a fortune through insurance companies may be a dead model.

everybody needs family practice, however.  just never, ever do it for the government.

She wants to do emergency med.  It's what she's always wanted to do.  She was a teacher (high school physics and biology) for a few years, so she's not sure she wants to go down that road again.

License to practice medicine will be contingent on accepting 0bamacare.  "Off the books or cash " med care will be as legal as heroine or crack cocaine in this country.

Only the rich will have good care, and it will be done in other countries, not the USA.

thats the one place where those can't pay go to be seen.  and thats the one place the government will pay nothing for those who do it.

shitty hours, shitty patients, and then the lawsuit when the wrong demographic has a runny nose and demands to be seen immediately and YOUR wife fails to see her in a timely manner because a white person with a severed arm walks in.

i can already tell your wife is a racist.

Not one but two doctors that practiced where my Mother and Fathers doctor practices whom they have been seeing for over 15 years, up and quit practicing medicine dumping their patients on my parents doctor. Because of this instead calling and getting an appointment in 2-3 days it can take them up to 6 weeks to get in and see their doctor, if they can't wait they can see nurse practitioner some what earlier or have been advised to go to one of those emergency care clinics.

I am afraid Obamacare is going to kill a whole lot of elderly in the US simply because they will no longer be able to see their doctors in a timely manner.

Basically already happening, I forget the name of it but they have several medical practices in my area that get great reviews and work for cash.  You pay "X" dollars a month and that gets you at home doctor visits, quality care and covers most medical procedures that can be done at your local doctor's office (sutures, exams, certain scans etc...) it does not cover you for major injuries or ER visits.

They aren't underground, but they don't accept medical insurance, you pay them a monthly fee and get great care through that doctor's office.

I provide IT support for area small businesses.  And I can't tell you how many medical clients are gone because of ACA.  Any of the small practices that haven't been gobbled up by the conglomerates with providers aged 50 or slightly over just simply packed up and retired early.  Just in our family, we've lost 3 doctors that simply said "Im out."

They were already teetering with reduced payments from medicare/medicaid and increasing malpractice insurance premiums.  ACA, EHR, etc just pushed them over the edge.  

Normally Im one of those "meh, survive or die in the marketplace" type of guys but these were good doctors that just simply had enough of the BS.    And finding a good doc that you trust, etc. isn't an easy thing to find.

as long as they keep voting democrat.

look, medical schools will now simply take anyone who can't get into a teaching college, crank em out, training hospitals will becoming primary care and when McDonalds pays better than medicine, we will just import them from the third world like they do in Europe.

we gotta kill the old folk anyway to save social security and the planet.  People are a parasite killing mother earth as it is.

there is a lot of forward thinking behind obamacare.

Whats old is new again.  Under Batista, Cuba had a booming medical tourism trade.  Med care every bit as good as the USA at a fraction of the price.  Abortion on demand was popular there for those "in trouble" and with the cash.

If they wanted to, Cuba could become a world class medical destination again in less than a generation.  Free market and money has a way of filling any void.

It already is.
Cuba has outstanding cash only medical care for foreigners.  Thats where canadians go if they can't afford US doctors.  Europeans, too.
Of course, native cubans have no access, but fuck them.

The one thing she has going for her is that she's also in the Air Force (Health Professions Scholarship Program for the win).  Worse comes to worst she can stay in the .mil and retire.
