I agree, I have friends in those countries as well, and that is a problem,
but again the root is tort reform. We have a doctor shortage, and with the
16 million new folks on the insurance lists will need 50,000 more. My
daughter was in pharmacy school with many med school friends, all but
one who have changed majors as the Medical profession in the US isn't
a great one to be in right now. The massive insurance plan they have to pay
for to cover malpractice kicks in immediately but the money does not. The
foreign doctors flood in to fill the breach, imported by the hospitals and
health
care providers themselves. Tort reform would make it reasonable for a US
Doctor to go to med school, finish and set up practice in our underserved
rural areas. Right now it is not possible.
