[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel sorry for the sick and poor in rural areas. We have it pretty good in the DMV compared to most areas. [/quote] My parents are in rural PA and they actually have an easy time finding doctors--both primary care and specialists. The DMV is hard because the cost of running a practice is so much higher (rent, salaries, even utilities). Physicians are reimbursed the same in both places but their overhead is twice as high here. [/quote] Danville?[/quote] Yeah they must live near Geisinger. Even a few miles away it’s not easy to find a doctor. My friend is a doctor there and had four job offers out of the gate. Every time he wants to take an extended vacation, he quits the job and comes back to a new one. [/quote]
