She's probably crying because she won't make as much money. Boo boo.

Instead of experienced, good doctors, you are going to get useless pile of worthless shit, running around in lab coast working for bottom fucking dollar. I hope you get sick as hell, admitted to a hospital, then accidentally given a lethal dose of some insanely painful medication, all because you opted for fast food medicine.

Do you really have to pay cash to get fixed in the hospital in America.

What if you are severly injured or dying and you dont have enough money to pay them, what happens, or do you have to pay first.

Re: My sister called me today, she's a doctor.
My sister is a doctor (OB), she called me today and said she had been crying since last night. She is beside herself. Now that the final nail has been driven into the US medical industry it's hit her hard.
Main issue for doctors is that they are being mandated too and regulated like never before. Most of Obamacare focuses on regulations, not the patient. That's what most people don't get. It's all about reporting back to the government. They will be determining your treatments and watching every facet of your "care".
This is scary. Take some time and dissect the bill. It's a whopper, makes our tax code look like 1st grade reading.

Re: My sister called me today, she's a doctor.
The problem is not the insurance companies, as much as liberals like to say that. One problem is tort laws that allow lawsuit for ridiculous things. If a doctor has a patient with a pain, and 99% of the time it can be diagnosed with simple procedures, but there is an infinitesimal chance the procedure might miss something, they send them on to the cat scan or MRI to avoid a potentially devastating lawsuit. This often costs the insurance company thousands of dollars. Obama stated early on he was against tort reform, because lawyers contribute heavily to the Dems.

Another problem is the welfare people that check in with "stomach pains" to get a clean bed, color TV with remote, free drugs, and three squares a day. Dozens did this on a regular basis at his hospital in a major city. It costs tax payers tens of thousands every day.

The final problem is that Medicare sets the standards that all doctors have to comply with. My oldest son is in his second year of residency. They are literally working him to death. He was a great kid, Eagle Scout, worked 40 hour weeks while going to college. Graduated college in three years.

In his first year of residency he saw the truth. In his internal medicine rotation he could see one patient every 30 minutes. 7-8 minutes seeing the patient, 20 minutes filling out redundant forms, required everywhere because of Medicare standards. He has 200,000 of med school debt, and now his future is being stripped from him by obamacare.

I highly advise potential premeds to think twice about going to med school. Mountains of debt, delayed income, then a mountain of government regulations, now obamacare.

I don't write this for the hard headed liberals on here. I write this for the real people who live in the real world, that really want to understand the problems.

Re: My sister called me today, she's a doctor.
Not sure why ANYONE would have sympathy for physicians who have been willing participants in not one, but TWO systems that are unconscionably corrupt, self-serving, and deceitful - aka: the American medical industry and big pharma.

Most doctors hate people who ask questions, they actively work to deny the fact that there are often safe alternatives, they have no compunction about prescribing drugs they KNOW are dangerous just so they can get their country club kickbacks, they push treatments on people knowing full well they will not be helped, and it is in THEIR best interest for everyone to remain borderline sick/healthy.

Whining and crying doctors? Boo-frigging-hoo.

He ASKED how it works here, He wanted to know if people are turned away if they are dying. I told him how it worked for poor people that needed emergency medical treatment but couldn't pay for it. Also informed him that you don't have to pay upfront to receive emergency treatment. It's a fact. What's your issue?

I wasn't advocating for people to just stroll into an ER for a cold, jack up a large bill and force taxpayers to handle it.

7 docs in a month couldnt find five huge arterial blood clots. Never tested me. Leg gone. Quarter of a million dollars was the bill for the chop. And a fake leg, well, you better have a lot of money, most insurance doesn't cover one. And so goes my own experience with hospitals and doctors.

We allow companies to profit by managing the payments to our health care service providers. They increase there potential risk articificially by allowing them using shell companies that appear to be independent while they are actually owned by related parties. In the end, they increase their profits to meet shareholder expectations by increasing rates or denying service. No one would voluntarily pick this system but most don't know how it really works.

Many Doctors that have a practice in TJ, also have their main practice in San Diego. They are well educated receiving their docorate fromt Ivy league schools and doing their residencies at hospitals like Cedar Sinai in LA. The care is excellent, though you have to pay cash.

The meds are 1/8 of the cost you'd pay in the US, due to big pharma jack.

A friend of mine gets her husbands heart meds in TJ (pays $60.00) for a three month supply, in SoCal, the cost is ($500.00) for a 30 day supply).

I know many people that cross the border for excellent medical care and pay cash, having already checked the credentials of the Doctor from their San Diego practice. Though, you cannot sue if you get fucked up.
