If we become single payer, your income will shrink to near nothing. There is absolutely no way you do your own billing if you'd rather be reimbursed by the government.


I’d rather just be a doctor. But you wouldn’t understand.

You don't even understand what a profit is

It does not "suck" anything

It is the difference between Cost and revenue

DOTD was supposed to have a surplus last year too. Once the department heads found that out, they started just buying massive quantities of tires, despite the fact that they had already purchased their annual allotment for tires.


You clearly have no idea how Medicaid works.

So you don't have massive medical school loans to pay off? You do not want to be compensated for your tremendous amount of schooling and skills?

Under single payer, you'd make about 40k/year and still have to pay off those massive student loans after med school.

You clearly have no idea how government works. They will find someone to spend that money on, something to purchase. This is Louisiana. Fraud is the name of the game, especially medicare and insurance fraud.

Medicaid does not purchase assets. You are so ignorant on this issue.

Medicaid reimburses for services renders and pays a massive bloated bureaucracy to do so.

You provided link says “uninsured” ER visits are down not overall ER visits are down. Again, you’re shitposting.

You do realize hospitals are paid for insured ER visits but not uninsured visits?

You do realize you posted that link in defense of your point that ER visits were down due to the expansion?

I would gladly take a pay cut to have single payer system and be a doctor who doesn’t have their hands tied by insurance companies. Insurance companies suck billions out the health care industry in profits without providing any services. You understand that is a problem right?
