[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The money in medicine is very good especially if patients are not using insurance. I just got a quote for a breast job. $14K for a 2 hour surgery. I don’t know if another profession that can reliably make $7K in an hour. [/quote]
You can’t possibly believe he pockets $7k, can you?
For a variety of reasons, this is an awful example to use. Why don’t you look at Medicaid reimbursement rates, not how much you are paying out of pocket for a boob job?[/quote]
Why is it an awful example? The best paid doctors tend to be plastic surgeons and dermatologists. Their clients have disposable money and insurance may not be involved. With that said why are doctors complaining about being family or pediatric doctors? Their grades and choice determined that. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants will eventually take over those field. They have more autonomy than ever. That’s why the pay and demand for those positions isn’t what it used to be. The doctors did it to themselves. [/quote]
