That's a scary theory to put into practice.At what point does his generally bad decision making affect his clinical acumen? He's already thrown himself and his family under the bus, what makes you think he would care any more for his patients?
Hang around enough doctors and you find a frightening number of docs who've made bad business decisions (running their practices into the ground), bad relationship decisions (multiple divorces), and plenty of demonstrations of bad common sense. And some of them are great clinicians.
They can't touch this guy's medical license, nor should they. But they should punish him to the full extent for shirking his duties. Courtmartial, discharge, no retirement/veteran's benefits.
