Like i said, what does education have to do with HCR? - Backwards Typist
[ In Reply To ..]It does not specifically state medical training/education.
Even my governor (dem)said the state mandates in this bill cannot be met by our state unless higher taxes are put in place.
If they are going to leave the Louisiana Purchase, etc. in this bill, then I think ALL states should get a hunk of money to help with the mandates too. It would only be fair.
So, although everything sounds hunky dory,it still means higher taxes for everyone, not just those making over $200-250K. Higher fees for LTACH, nursing homes, PT, necessary medical devices, and lower fees for physicians and hospitals.
Education - Excerpt
[ In Reply To ..]HEALTH CARE WORKFORCE
Ă´€€Â¹
Makes key investments in training doctors and nurses and other health care providers. Currently, 65 million Americans live in communities where they cannot easily access a primary care provide. An additional 16,500 practitioners are required to meet their needs. The legislation addresses shortages in primary care and other areas of practice by making necessary investments in our nationĂ¢€™s health care workforce. Specifically, it will invest in scholarship and loan repayment programs through the National Health Service Corps to expand the health care workforce. The bill also includes incentives for primary care practitioners and for providers to practice in underserved areas.
Oh, how laughable and pathetic. ..and in reality, - doctors are going to LEAVE.nm

At the place I was working, docs were already - leaving due to the insurance

Maybe you could share with us how exactly - you know this. sm
[ In Reply To ..]If this helps weed out MDs who entered medical practice strictly for the greed factor and replaces them with others whose expectations are more down to earth and place more emphasis on the humanitarian nature of their profession, then I am all for it.
Stop and think for just a second. Lets say your prognostications of doc flight materialize. Just how far do you think they will get with that after they glut their own alternative job markets? It is a circumstance that will inevitably provide its own self-correting mechanisms.
..and the ones who are in it for the...sm - nosa
[ In Reply To ..]greed factor have already socked away and invested enough to sustain them, especially those close to retirement, and good riddence to them. What will the rest of the incontents do? A cleansing might be a good thing. I think they are bluffing. Patient care should come before money.

And even the hacking into Democratic emails, F.B.I. and intelligence officials now believe, was aimed at disrupting the presidential election rather than electing Mr. Trump....... Even in a story in which they're forced to admit no ties, NYTimes finds ways to editorialize and bring in unsubstantiated accusations starting from the headline ("no clear links" -- suggesting they might ...
