[Histonet] 88305TC starting to hit the fan...

[Jay Lundgren]

Because there is a huge shortage of primary care docs as it is, which will
only get worse when millions of uninsured people suddenly have insurance.
 So I guess they are trying to entice more med students into primary care.
 There is a push to train more physician's assistants too

As it is, the top medical students want to go into something like radiology
or dermatology so they can work banker's hours and make 5x as much money as
a PCHP, and who can blame them?

I friend of mine who is a radiology tech saw a locum radiologist's pay stub
left on the fax machine (by accident), and said radiologist makes $280./hr.
