[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its become a factory line since obama care kicked in.  welcome to a somewhat world of socialized healthcare that docs need to process as many as possible to turn a profit.

also dont forget, inflation has gone nuts but the insurance reimbursement to doctors has stayed constant so they cant afford to hire staff.  Its really a sh*t show.

Its about to hit dentistry next. [/quote]

For those who are blaming Obamacare-- what is the exact problem?  (honest question.). I guess if Obamacare means more American insured and thus more people demanding medical care, it could simultaneously stress the system AND be a good thing.

Or are you referring to some other regulation in Obamacare-- requirement for zero-cost annual physicals and that kind of thing?

More people in the system with a decrease in reimbursements. Docs have two choices, not accept and go out of network OR see a lot more patients for the same amount of pay. Do you now understand now? Something has to give and it’s the quality of care.  That’s what Obama care did. [/quote]

Odd that people in other countries still are shocked at what is happening in the US, because it is so much worse than they could have expected, based on their experiences. And the outcomes data on systems assessment has never favored the US. Hmmm.[/quote]

These people aren’t necessarily a good judge.  They are constantly bombarded with anti-American propaganda.  Anyone with European friends know this.

It’s too hard to really judge differences in healthcare since you have differences in lifestyle and overall health (obesity).

I have 5 weeks of vacation and my European friends act like they don’t believe me.  They’ve been told Americans don’t get vacation or it’s 2 weeks.

Europeans are very high on their benefits and lifestyle.  They tend to go along with whatever they are told.  Look at the recent Covid response.

You know there are actual studies on this, right? But cling to those beliefs if it makes you feel better, I guess.[/quote]
