The Chicago-based national doctors group, which represents nearly a quarter-million physicians, is being asked by several medical societies within the organization to change its stance in favor of the &#8216;individual mandate.'&#8221; I don\u2019t know if they\u2019re running for office or not. It\u2019s amazing how things change whatever you do approach an election, inside and outside politics. <\/p>\n<paragraph\/><paragraph xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignright\"\/><\/p>\n<paragraph\/><paragraph xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">&#8220;A formal vote comes up at the AMA\u2019s annual policymaking House of Delegates meeting Saturday through Wednesday at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. The AMA\u2019s support of the health care legislation, which was passed by Congress and then signed into [blah, blah] was seen as critical at the time the controversial legislation was being debated. The delegates\u2019 debate comes following the filing of federal lawsuits by several attorneys&#8221; blah, blah, blah, we all know this. &#8220;A resolution that will be introduced by three national surgery groups, including the American Society of General Surgeons and six largely southern state delegations of physicians, says the federal mandate &#8216;regulating the individual purchase of health insurance will likely undermine the innovations and improvements in health care financing that can evolve in a free market.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The AMA should &#8216;regard the purchase of health insurance to be a matter of individual responsibility to be encouraged by the use of tax incentives and other noncompulsory measures,\u2019 those opposed to the mandate said in their resolution.&#8221; Well, now, this is fine and dandy. Now, look, there are 20 other groups. It\u2019s not the entire AMA, folks &#8212; and, by the way, the AMA is not what it used to be. Physician membership at the AMA has decreased now to less than 20% of practicing physicians. So you could say that the physicians that are members of the AMA are a fringe group, there are that few practicing physicians still in the AMA, but it doesn\u2019t matter because it carries a lot of weight based on reputation and just the name of the group: The AMA. <\/p>\n<p>But I love these people that come along after the fact, realizing the damage has been done, and now to save a little face say, &#8220;Guess what? It\u2019s time to say we gotta rethink this.&#8221; It\u2019s a small percentage of the entire AMA in the first place, but nevertheless it\u2019s happening. Speaking of doctors, listen to this. (sigh) This is from UPI: &#8220;A survey by Accenture indicates more U.S. physicians are selling their private practices to work at larger healthcare systems. By 2013, less than one-third of U.S. physicians are expected to remain in private practice and patients may increasingly find that being treated by physicians in private, small practice settings may be a thing of the past. &#8216;Health reform is challenging the entire system to deliver improved care through insight driven health,\u2019 Kristin Ficery, a senior executive at Accenture Health, says in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Physicians tell the survey [by Accenture] that they are increasingly attracted to the benefits offered by hospital-based employment opportunities, which include&#8221; a big one: &#8220;relief from administrative responsibilities.&#8221; Doctors are notoriously horrible at that \u2019cause they hate it, which I totally can relate to. Many doctors consider themselves to be artists. As such, they think of themselves as creative, and administrative stuff? It\u2019s minutia. It\u2019s just a waste of time. They hate it; they despise it. I do. I despise having to do that stuff. Oh, my gosh! You know, I still pay all my own bills, and I hate it. Well, let\u2019s just put it this way: It\u2019s the one thing I\u2019ve not farmed out to somebody. We still do it for a whole host of reasons, but I still hate it. From the time it takes on down, I hate just the whole concept of being involved in administrative duties. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"340\" height=\"206\" class=\"alignright\"\/>So here\u2019s the point here. If you are the Obama regime, and you\u2019re trying to move everybody down the tracks toward full-fledged government-run health care, there are a number of things that you need to have happen &#8212; and one is fewer and fewer and fewer options for patients, for coverage and for insurance. The regime has done a good job in writing this health care bill of, in five to ten years, removing practically every option but the government. If you can get doctors to willingly give up their private practices &#8212; if you can somehow encourage doctors to give up the entrepreneurial aspects of the gig and force them into hospital employment or government employment &#8212; and you use as the carrot, &#8220;Hey, come join us! We\u2019ll handle all the administrative for you,&#8221; I\u2019m telling you, it\u2019s gonna work. <\/p>\n<p>It will be very attractive to a number of doctors; I don\u2019t know how many. I know this is a blanket indictment, and I don\u2019t mean it to be \u2019cause it\u2019s not true of every doctor, just like nothing is true of every single person in a line of work. But, well, we all know doctors. I go into the doctor\u2019s office and sometimes the desks I see are covered with undone administrative business piling up: Checks, forms to fill out, Medicare. They put it off and put it off. It\u2019s the last thing in the world these guys want to do. Women, too. Don\u2019t misunderstand that it\u2019s anything gender specific. So the farther doctors get from private practice, which is the entrepreneurial model&#8230; The fewer doctors who essentially &#8220;hang a shingle&#8221; as, you know, lawyers do when they get out of law school: Just open their own office.<\/p>\n<p>The farther you can get doctors away from private practice, their own offices, the more amenable they will become to government and bureaucrat control of their profession because it\u2019s going to take over an aspect of it that they detest. Note here the first benefit: &#8220;Physicians tell the survey they are increasingly attracted to the benefits offered by hospital-based employment opportunities, which include relief from administrative responsibilities.&#8221; That\u2019s the first benefit: Relief from all these administrative responsibilities. Now, in addition, it must be pointed out that today the bulk of these administrative responsibilities are due to all of the government\u2019s reporting requirements and all the paperwork required by government, and the boondoggle of Medicare. <\/p>\n<p>So here comes an opportunity to get rid of all that and have bureaucrats do it and believe me: It\u2019s gonna be very attractive for a lot of these doctors to just say, &#8220;Okay, fine.&#8221; So it\u2019s a slow, creeping progression here toward whittling away of health care &#8212; both insurance coverage and treatment &#8212; being provided in the private sector. Private physicians are gonna be as rare as mortgage brokers thanks to the government. Now, we talked yesterday about the damage that the government has done to the health care industry. Not just costs, but the degree of treatment. Every aspect of it, it\u2019s just a mess &#8212; and they\u2019re doing the same thing now to the home industry. So it\u2019s popping up out there. Now, all these AMA guys say, &#8220;Hey, guess what? We think it was a mistake, the individual mandate.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s too little too late, but at least they\u2019re on the right side of it.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>This is Marty in Louisville.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey, Rush, listen, I\u2019m a physician. I\u2019ve been listening since around 1992.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And you were talking about getting physicians out of private practice. All the incentives in Obamacare are to go towards a single payer and they formed something called an accountable care organization where the money is given to the hospital for the diagnosis. And the hospital distributes it, redistributes it to the physician. And the hospitals are in the process right now of forming these accountable care organizations &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Accountable care, you\u2019re calling it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right. Right. It is gonna compel the physician to become an employee, basically, of the hospital and ultimately the government. You know, the dirty little secret here is they want to get rid of old school docs like me who are familiar with the private practice model &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; and replace them with the post office mentality position.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Exactly. Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And that\u2019s exactly what it\u2019s all about, and it\u2019s not even voluntary because the physician is gonna be forced into a relationship with the hospital where he is gonna basically have to give up the private practice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.57631.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: Well, the story alludes to the fact that some doctors might not mind that because one of the benefits is that the hospital or whoever is gonna take over all the nightmares and headaches of the administrative aspects of their job.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah, they\u2019re also gonna tell them what they can and can\u2019t do.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And how to treat the patient.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Already doing that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes. Well, the point is that that\u2019s exactly what they intend, and it\u2019s working. It\u2019s absolutely working.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay, as a doctor in the system, why are these bureaucrats doing this? Do they really think that this is the ticket to better health care and cheaper health care, because anybody with common sense realizes this is a debacle.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Listen, it\u2019s about control. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Exactly right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: They want control of the system. They want control of our lives.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Exactly right. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: They want to change our whole relationship with the government.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And they don\u2019t care whether it works or is efficient or not; they want the control.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Listen, they are Democrats. There\u2019s no accountability. You know, it\u2019s ironically named an accountable care organization.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It\u2019s anything but accountable.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Just like it\u2019s not the Affordable Care Act. It\u2019s everything but affordable.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Correct.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I appreciate the call, Marty. What are you gonna do?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I happen to be a plastic surgeon. So far I have an out because a lot of the things I do don\u2019t involve third-party payers.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Oh, yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: But, you know, I hope no one\u2019s listening because they\u2019ll figure out a way to tax me to death pretty soon.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, we all have that fear.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: If not tax you, just take it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah. And I think one of the underlying plans here is to begin to confiscate. You know, there\u2019s a possibility here, and I know this sounds a little outlandish, that they\u2019re gonna change the 401(k) rules to try to pay for the deficit to generate income.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah. Yeah, we\u2019ve talked about that. What they essentially are going to do is offer you an exchange. They\u2019re going to get you to give up your 401(k), give you what they think is market value for it today &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; so they can take the money and then they\u2019re gonna guarantee you like two to three percent every year on it. It\u2019s a lose-lose proposition. It\u2019s nothing more than an end around to get their hands on your money now in violation of the original promise when the whole 401(k) was set up.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, listen, this is why we must defeat Obama.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you something, Newt made a point in the debate. He said, if you\u2019re really serious about overturning health care, you can\u2019t stop with just beating Obama. You gotta defeat the Democrats that run the Senate. If you\u2019re gonna repeal it, you\u2019re going to defund it, you have to have control of the Senate as well. Even if you\u2019re not able to beat Obama, take control of the Senate, but the best is take control of everything. It\u2019s gonna take this election and many more to effectively start the process of rolling all this back. And we\u2019ll find out if that\u2019s what people really want. We have hope here that it is. We\u2019ll find out. Appreciate the call, Marty.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s Jody, Minneapolis, welcome to the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hello, Rush. It\u2019s an absolute honor to speak with you. I just wanted to point out that your point about the AMA numbers are actually quite correct. The AMA numbers are inflated. I\u2019m proof positive that they\u2019re inflated. As a physician, I actually don\u2019t think I ever paid dues though I\u2019ve been a member of the AMA for many, many years; they just keep giving me membership. When they came out in support of the Obama health care initiative, I called the membership office and very specifically asked to be taken off all of their mailing lists and have my membership dropped. Approximately six months later, I get a letter from the AMA stating, &#8220;We hope you\u2019ve reconsidered your position, and here\u2019s your next membership.&#8221; So even though I\u2019ve been a member for many years, I\u2019ve never paid dues; I\u2019ve never sent my money.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So the membership is not that large, not that many doctors are members anymore, right?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No, and a large number of them, the membership numbers are people like me. They have never actually paid for a membership, and we\u2019re counted in those numbers.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I appreciate that. Thanks very much, Jody. This is Jerry. We move to Battle Creek, Michigan. You\u2019re next on the Rush Limbaugh program.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey, Rush.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Great talking to you. It\u2019s great talking to you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, sir, very much.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m like Jody. I left the AMA back in the early nineties when the Stark Amendment passed and the AMA clearly was not supportive of primary care physicians. I guess I didn\u2019t leave them, they left me. I keep getting their mailings and JAMA articles. It\u2019d be fine with me if they quit sending me their stuff, but they really don\u2019t represent my interests, and clearly seem to be interested in another agenda.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, they\u2019re a political organization, and that\u2019s why the left and the media are touting them as being big and important and so forth. It used to be. The AMA used to have lot more members than it has now. It was a huge organization. It did carry a lot of weight, had a great reputation, and they\u2019re still living off that. Of course, since they make the &#8220;right&#8221; political decisions, or have, the media still trumpets them as what they were &#8212; big, powerful, influential &#8212; when in fact they\u2019re not nearly as influential or big as they were. It\u2019s still significant, though, that whatever remaining membership numbers there are, are still saying, &#8220;You know, maybe this individual mandate\u2019s not the way to go.&#8221; I still am struck by the timing: Why now? Where were you when it mattered? It might-a mattered if the AMA had come out against this from the get-go and stuck to its guns. You never know. You know, Obama was buying allegiance to his plan with health insurance executives, and he was doing it with the other health care providers and so forth. But you have to wonder. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, they\u2019ve arrived at the right point of view on it, albeit late. We\u2019ll take it nevertheless. <\/p>\n<p>END TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The AMA: &#8220;AMA to Reconsider Support of Health Insurance Requirement &#8212;
