conducted a survey of doctors across the country. The survey took place from April 18 through May 22 of this year and was conducted on line and by fax. Of the 30,000 fax numbers of doctors in active clinical practices, 16,227 doctors successfully received the faxed survey. Of these, only 699 physicians completed the survey either by fax or going on line. |
The results of those that responded indicated an overwhelming belief
that Obamacare will be a complete disaster and that many of them are
seriously considering leaving their medical practices because of it.
Here are some of the statistics gathered from the survey:
- 90% say the medical system is on the WRONG TRACK
- 83% say they are thinking about QUITTING
- 61% say the system challenges their ETHICS
- 85% say the patient-physician relationship is in a TAILSPIN
- 65% say GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT is most to blame for current problems
- 72% say individual insurance mandate will NOT result in improved access care
- 49% say they will STOP accepting Medicaid patients
- 74% say they will STOP ACCEPTING Medicare patients, or leave Medicare completely
- 52% say they would rather treat some Medicaid/Medicare patient for FREE
- 57% give the AMA a FAILING GRADE representing them
- 1 out of 3 doctors is HESITANT to voice their opinion
- 2 out of 3 say they are JUST SQUEAKING BY OR IN THE RED financially
- 95% say private practice is losing out to CORPORATE MEDICINE
- 80% say DOCTORS/MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS are most likely to help solve things
- 70% say REDUCING GOVERNMENT would be single best fix.
When you combine all of the responses from the doctors that took time
to fill out the survey, it says that they want the government out of
medical profession and that Obamacare will not work. Therefore, 83% say
that they are thinking about quitting their medical practices. They
don’t want to be told by the government how to treat their patients and
they don’t want to have to wade through mountains of paperwork the
government will require.
Three quarters of them say that they will stop taking Medicaid
patients because of Obamacare. The program, supported by the U.S.
Supreme Court calls for extending the number of people that will fall
under Medicaid coverage, but if 3 of every 4 doctors quit accepting
Medicaid patients, it won’t matter how much the coverage is extended as
there won’t be any doctors to treat them.
It also shows that the majority of doctors in private practices are
barely surviving financially and that they feel that under all of the
demands and restrictions of Obamacare that there is no way for them to
avoid losing money. This is the reason so many of them are considering
the option of walking away from their practices.
If this survey is any indication of what is coming with the
implementation of Obamacare, it spells out the complete collapse of the
medical industry in America. The only places where anyone will be able
to receive treatment will be in corporate medical facilities, which
means longer waiting to get in to see the doctor and longer waiting for
any testing, surgeries and or other procedures.
Chances are you will never see the same doctor twice which means that
none of them will be familiar with your health and any medical
conditions. This impersonal form of medicine increases the likelihood
of missed diagnosis, wrong treatments, wrong prescriptions, and more
malpractice issues. We will no longer be patients with names and real
lives as we’ll just be a number to the government run doctors.
The saddest and most discouraging aspect of this survey is that even
if you shoved it in the face of Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi, it
wouldn’t change their minds on anything. With those two continually
telling lies about what Obamacare really is, the truth won’t matter to
them until it becomes history, and even then they’ll blame others and
point their fingers at someone else. Unless we can get a Republican
president and Senate in November’s election, the medical world in
America will collapse and take the nation down with it.
Two of my wife's three doctors will not be accepting Medicare patients.
However, US 'little girls' now women have no respect for USURPING COMMIES!!!!!!! BAM!
EDIT: b/c I wanted to~ ; )

Unlike Wayne, who NEVER served, Stewart was actually a decorated War Hero.

And I agree with you, re' this, being, the worst thing, ever, for our nation...

and
So.... for all these people thinking that the employer is going to pick up an additional $20,000 a year tab... think again! According to the HR3962, you will HAVE to go to the exchange to cover yourself and family! Now, what you WERE getting FREE from your employer, will now cost $20,000 to $24,000 a year through these exchanges! And by the way, that is on a "after tax" basis!
We should have listened to the Republicans and their call for Health Savings Accounts! That was the BEST idea that came out of Washington and the Dems BLEW IT!
For Doctor obama is a lot like Dr. Kevorkian.... even with the same charm... but no compassion! :(

At least your doctor there is still "HOPE" for? Unfortunately, mine already had his fill.... he left shortly after it was passed! :(
He told me that the excess paper work is killing him, so he cannot take on more patients to make up for the loss in reimbursement from Medicare and Medicaid, not to mention the Increase in his Errors and Omissions Insurance, Malpractice Insurance and all the other Crap...
So, he cannot take on more help to do the Paperwork and his other girls are taxed with the stuff as well....
YES, we are in trouble! :(
here is another one.
Why did not 0bama asked them to be his advisors?
Understand the system before your start bashing it.
You can retainYour own Dr., until the Bill total takes over in it's entirety, and then The GOV takes over and your Dr must submit to them and Their Waiting Schedule for Reimbursement...so Your DR, will Schedule based on time it takes for reimbursement with All their patients....
This IS also how the system is run in England and Canada...and the People Are Upset with the Waiting Time...
We talked about the faults of the American Healthcare system, which he is licensed to practice in, and how the English health care system works.
Nice try, but don't argue with someone who understands to topic.
But I have Friends and Relatives from England and still IN England as well as Canada..And they Tell a Completely Different Story...One of Long Waits to Get to see a Dr., and if you Need a Specialist, then yoy are put on another List, which you start the Wait Period Over...
I also Have read thru all 5- HR Bills including the Final Version..and What YOU Are Being Told to believe, is NOT the same as In the Bill itself...
But Being a LIB...You alwyas Believe What is Told to You By YOUR Politicians, instead of Questiong What they say, by looking Up the Facts...
