Doctors Mad: Why Now?

I am baffled at the outrage the physician community is displaying. The number one complaint: The government in the exam room. What happened to the doctor / patient relationship? How can doctors provide effective treatment with limits? My question: Why are you concerned now?

 

You already have insurance companies, pharmacies, TPA’s, etc in the exam room with you. Why the sudden concern? Don’t misunderstand me, I think the concern is warranted. Is there just not enough real estate in your exam room to fit another person, is the threat of the government a bigger concern than all these other entities or did you just finally realize that they have been there all along?
