Hi Todd, read your post and what you wrote about
is and will be happening to clinics like yours all over the country in the next few years. OBGYN clinics have been hit especially hard in the smaller and more rural communities as costs for malpractice insurance rises astronomically every year. OBGYN practices pay more for malpractice insurance than any other specialty practice and as a result plus with the cost of getting a medical degree today, young doctors are not choosing OGBYN as their specialty. Whether you are for or against Obama care the ridiculous cost of malpractice insurance and frivolous law suits was not addressed and I might add, has not been addressed in any national legislation from both sides of the political isle for over 30 years.
On another note when I read that you were in the infusion room, my first thought was you were going through another round of Provenge, glad I read the blog to get the real story. Hope the infusion is going well.
