Government has many ways to strong arm providers. Already happens with Medicaid.
No doctor is required to take Medicaid.
Several that do do so under rare exception. In a handful of cases, they straight treat them for free our of kindness instead of jumping through the hoops involved.
There are big incentives for taking Medicaid right now- underserved and rural federal health subsidies are getting previously independent docs big paydays. The subsidy will eventually go away and previously independent guys will have to decide what to do when the rug is cut out from under their feet.
Don't know what they'll do. But I know I won't be one of them.
