Note: the initial post title had “nearly half,” not “nearly one third,” for reasons shown below.
If you can contact a wavering Democrat, make sure they see this (New England Journal of Medicine Medicus Firm via Weekly Standard Blog, emphasis in original):
46.3% of primary care physicians (family medicine and internal medicine) feel that the passing of health reform will either force them out of medicine or make them want to leave medicine.
If health reform passes without the public option, 7.4% of physicians stated that they would quit practicing medicine, unless they were nearing retirement, in which case 21.8% said they would retire early, bringing the total loss of physician workforce to nearly one-third of physicians leaving medicine.
Read that again: 46.3% 29.2%. That’s nearly half one third of all primary care physicians who could leave the field if the House “deems” Obamacare passed.
Lean hard on those Dems; the doctor you save could be your own.
