Fire the Insurance Company
Categories: Care Without Insurance, Texas
The Texas Medical Association reports on a small movement among doctors, especially what we now call "primary care physicians," to fire the insurance company.
The reasons are several, but one gets to the desire to spend more time with patients and less time with billing clerks.
Said one physician, "the insurance system that pays physicians is a volume-driven system that doesn’t allow for the extra time you need to spend with some patients."
