The Democrats want Anesthesiology and Radiology to pay less than Family practice.
I don't think this is what patients want. Totally different training pathway too. Actually patients expect that a doctor will be in charge of their anesthesia. A lot of the AANA propaganda is aimed at trying to convince patients that they are involved and an anesthesiologist isn't even needed. Even the CRNAs know this is bull****... especially when the **** hits the fan, that is. They're not going to call an FP doctor into the OR, are they? We do critical care every day. I shudder to think what your average FP would do in that situation, no offense to the dignity and expertise of their particular chosen profession intended.
