21. So docs should pay to practice?

So you think doctors should continue to treat Medicare patients at a loss? How long do you think a money-losing practice can stay open?

Don't blame the docs. Blame the congresscritters and pResident that refuse to fund Medicare at a high enough level that doctors don't lose money treating Medicare patients.

But this is all more grist for the mill of single payer health care.
