Getting into medical school may not be as difficult as it used to be! If the latest reports are any indication, America will be absolutely desperate for doctors by 2015, when it's expected that the country will have 62,900 fewer physicians that it needs. In a jaw-dropping story in today's New York Times, the Association of American Medical Colleges warns that ObamaCare is squeezing doctors out of practice--just in time for the swell in Baby Boomer patients. In 2025, the shortfall of doctors will balloon to more than 100,000 physicians--leaving many Americans without the care the President promised to deliver. And there seems to be little anyone, including the government, can do to remedy the situation.
Meanwhile, the doctors who do practice may have lesser equipment to work with. Thanks to ObamaCare's tax spike for medical device manufacturers, some companies--like Indiana's Cook Medical Inc.--are canceling plans to expand, because the 2.3% in new taxes will take a $20-30 million bite out of their bottom line. The House voted to repeal the tax last month, but like so many things, it died in the legislative abyss that is the U.S. Senate. If you like your health care, the President says you can keep it. Just don't expect any doctors to be around to deliver it!
