Physicians aren't "afraid" of midlevels. The problem is that there's not a single study that shows that NPs/DNPs provide equal care as physicians. There are a lot of studies that measure useless metrics like patient satisfaction, etc, and the NPs/DNPs extrapolate from that useless data to say that they provide care that's equivalent to that of physicians.Regardless of what he was arguing there, I pulled this jewel of a quote from there
"Physicians, are afraid that patients will discover that the care we provide is equal to that of physicians."
Hmmm... Im not quite sure what to think about this statement. Im not sure what he means and I do not want to take it out of context. But it seems pretty straight forward as far as comments go.
Any Thoughts?
