Obama care - Patient protection and affordable care act (PPACA)

Pay for performance

The primary care physicians have a portion of their pay withheld, and a bonus payment made for meeting "Quality Measures"

One quality measure: 100% vaccination rate.

Having one unvaccinated child could cut their annual income 6%.

Physicians are just pawns in this game too.

Wow... does it get worse with more unvaccinated kids? I bet doctors will kick them out to maintain 100%.

There is one doctor from Chicago that does not vaccinate kids at all. [link to homefirst.com] I noticed that they re-did the website. Not sure if it had to do with Obamacare rules.
 Quoting: AlcoholicRunner


I believe 6% is the maximum penalty for missing the vaccination target, but it would lable them a "Bad Doc" on the health compare web sites and in the community. That would increase their malpractice insurance cost. It could potentially ruin a good Doctor.

Sadly, you are right. Nothing good ever come out of social programs by socialists...
