QuoteOver 214,000 doctors won't participate in the new plans under the Affordable Care Act (ACA,) analysis of a new survey by Medical Group Management Association shows. That number of 214,524, estimated by American Action Forum, is through May 2014, but appears to be growing due to plans that force doctors to take on burdensome costs. It's also about a quarter of the total number of 893,851 active professional physicians reported by the Kaiser Family Foundation.

In January, an estimated 70% of California's physicians were not participating in Covered California plans.

The patients get the death-panels and the we'll tell you what kinds of care and treatment you need panels... while the doctors get the delayed-reimbursement panels and the we'll tell you what kind of care and treatment the patient needs panels.

I haven't seen so much emphasis on panels since Gary Moore...

Except for a GOP tsunami in a week, you know there was supposed to be additional legislation (probably just EO rewrites to ACA by Obama himself) that would pull these pesky doctors and hospitals back into the fold, or strip them of their licenses.

I've already lost one Doc, thanks to Obammycare. That was AFTER having Obammycare get between me and my Dr. telling me I can only take my heart medication in the amounts the plan says, not the amount my Dr, says I need.

So much for "you can keep your Dr, and no one will be getting between you and your Dr" which most of us knew at the time Obammy uttered those lies, were well just that, lies.
