Let's make everything equal and everyone the same for the better of the nation. Nobody has any incentive to be creative or potentially lifesaving for the good of the patient. If it is not on the pathway then it doesn't exist. Let's see how long the American public will tolerate the destruction of medicine and the horrendous quality that is proposed. This is not England and Americans won't tolerate that type of care. I predict a return to cash only care as it is already happening across America.

I am officially not accepting any new Medicare patients on an elective basis. I will obviously have to see ER and inpatient hospital referrals, but I will not accept them in my office.
