CBO on the New Kennedy Health Care Reform Bill

huangthomas: Comments (273) FollowIncrease the number of nurses may be a good idea, but not the number of doctors. Rule of the market (supply and demand) does not apply to the number of doctors. They are capable of creating "diseases" to treat and increase the cost of health care

There definately WILL be more nurses than doctors in government medicine. The nurses will gate-keep...they will decide whether or not you really need to see a doctor. If they are wrong, too bad! You can't sue the government for misdiagnosis. Doctors will quit medicine...no incentive...and you will have to hope and pray that the nurse who is treating you and those you love makes a good guess as to what is best for you and yours. It's going to be bad! God help us.
