(I think NBN offers incentives for doctors also.) Other doctors will go to a variety of countries, especially English speaking ones, that allow private medicine, even if socialized medicine is dominant. American doctors do not like to be pushed around.hnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-41445698495882414162009-07-26T07:30:07.638+03:002009-07-26T07:30:07.638+03:00If the USA sets up a system like Canada, it won...If the USA sets up a system like Canada, it won't get the Canadian doctors, and it will lose more American trained ones and it won't get the Israeli ones either.

Those doctors will choose another country, and fewer American doctors will stay in the states causing the same situation.<br /><br />Many Doctors will go to where they can earn more and not be civil servants.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-39180526571351507522009-07-23T01:35:16.429+03:002009-07-23T01:35:16.429+03:00C'mon, American doctors wouldn't leave the...C'mon, American doctors wouldn't leave the country.

In England, like Israel, there's more a combination. The dentist we had in London, when we were on shlichut, did fillings on National Health, but all the fancy stuff privately. I got my "strap bridge" from him. Every dentist here who has seen it was in awe, private, not cheap, but I got my money's worth.<br /><br />American doctors would never put up with mandatory public medicine. Many would leave the country. I can't see the gov't forcing such a thing.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-5179405318111316372009-07-22T19:16:16.312+03:002009-07-22T19:16:16.312+03:00Shalom!

One Canadian wrote in that it is illegal for doctors to work privately in Canada. He and his wife waited in an empty emergency waiting room with their sick infant for six hours for a doctor. He wrote that he would have been more than willing to pay 1,000 dollars on the spot to see a private doctor, but couldn't. Governments have done little good and much harm to health care and educational systems.Hadassanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-5091045206510119802009-07-22T14:17:50.154+03:002009-07-22T14:17:50.154+03:00Great examples.
