Thanks Shadowfax for bring this to my attention – not sure how I missed this either.
Nothing new that hasn’t been discussed here, but it’s well worth reading. I’ll leave you with the money (so to speak) quote:
In short, we doctors do what we get paid to do and we get trained to do what we get paid to do. Therefore, if the system of reimbursement changes to value the work of primary care doctors as much as sub-specialists, then this trend can be reversed—if leaders at the highest levels of government make this a priority.
