Question

QUESTION 11

1. Over the history of health care reform, physicians and their associations have not supported healthcare reform. Using the information in Chapter 11, and the principles of ethics, give two explanations why these groups did not support reform.

Answer 1

Physicians have not supported health care reform over the years because once the government passed out a law which says "Medicare for all" and a single payer system. It affected the physicians because a single payer system was introduced . But at the same time it was  good for patients, who would no longer have to worry about paying for the care they need. patients get regular checkups and patients no longer delay care due to cost concerns.

single-payer system affected doctors? it affected their reimbursements and, their administrative burden. All payments would be processed through one fee schedule.
here the physicians are not paid enough or like before with the reform being introduced so they did not support
