Who's gonna tell the doctors and nurses that they get a 50% pay cut?

Cut their pay by 50% and get rid of malpractice lawsuits. Have some other system that doesn't incentivize lawsuits where doctors are still held accountable but I think that's a deal most doctors would take in a heartbeat.

You think they’re getting so much money from out current system that cutting out insurance companies would result in a 50% reduction in their pay? Have you ever looked up the size of the health insurance sector here?

  • That's literally the premise of the report. The savings comes from getting Medicare's current rate sheet for every patient in the entire market.

  • You're being dishonest if you claim otherwise. UK brain surgeons get paid less than a Walmart general manager in the United States, let alone a like for like comparison.

Do they need to get a 50% paycut? Dealing with insurance companies takes a ton of time and resources.
