No one has mentioned yet, the concern that many of the brightest minds will move to foreign capitalistic countries where they can still practice how they deem appropriate.
There will be a change in the type of doctor we will be producing. Yeah for us!
Can you name the countries of the world that now have or will have after implementing AHCA- more capitatlistic health care programs :???:
Damn right I can. They do as they please in the Philippines. You have 2 inalienable rights in the Philippines....the right to starve and the right to die. If the Doc doesn't get his dough UP FRONT, he won't be workin' for you. If you are in the hospital, your family or someone better bring your meals to you, cause there ain't no foodservice. Same goes for a pillow, sheets, or blankets. Bring 'em or lay on the pallet, your choice. The big hospitals in Makati are a little better, but not much. And the thing is, the doctors there are EXTREMELY well trained and qualified, but they don't drive Benzes and have staff with tailored uniforms and several ladies to handle insurance and appointments. And they don't take Wednesdays off to tee up. If I had to have an expensive medical procedure done, I would sure look into having it done over there. Roundtrip airfare wouldn't run much more than a day or 2 at the most's stay in a US hospital. See the family, go to the beach, eat some giant prawns, and watch the locals steal the electric lines for the copper.
