[QUOTE="John O'Connor, post: 36854, member: 13064"] Doctors hate the "negotiated rates". Just look at Defy, and others not willing to deal with insurance. $2K+/year for just TRT therapy, labs, meds. That doesn't cover physical therapy, surgery for injury, mental health, etc. Just like Defy, most doctors aren't willing to work for medicare's negotiated rates. They have huge liability, overhead, etc. I'm in the process of trying to get into PA schools. It costs $200K + and many years just to get through undergrad, + 3 years of grad school to make $90K. Doctors have double that cost and time. They deserve to be paid. Most give up the best years of their lives to become doctors, and then work 60+ hours per week to get practice started. Endocrine doctors are some of the lowest paid too, which partially explains why the quality sucks. But its still inexcusable to have such pathetic guidelines. What countries have better healthcare than the US? I think you are misinformed with that statement. There are waiting lists 2 years long to have bypass surgery in England. My aunt paid $20K to get to front of the list (6 month wait) for her double bypass. [/QUOTE]
