Health Care Costs

From Business pundit via  the Big Picture:


Why Your Stitches Cost $1,500 - Part Two
Via: Medical Billing And Coding

The claim that doctors are overpaid is going to ruffle some feathers.  I would think that if large numbers of scholarships were available to doctors, we might be able to lower their annual pay once they are out of school, but paying off debts makes it much more expensive than necessary.  Unfortunately, the AMA has a century-long track record of keeping doctors from facing billing limits.
