I was wondering about this. How do you think we, as medical applicants in this transition phase, should approach health policy questions. The consequences of Obamacare are unclear and the bill itself is indecipherable. Should we read up on the various technicalities of the laws? That would seem like the right thing to do but in the subjective context of an interview it would seem like the best thing to do would be sincere and put your best foot forward. Also, most traditional physicians from the baby-boomer generation are against Obamacare but still, many physicians support it. Should we look to see if what expansions the state in question has passed?

Also, my previous answer accounts for that policy law. Basically, you would have to be wary of the policy in place at the hospital you work at. Maybe at the beginning of your answer or as a transition you could say "I think this prompts underscores the importance of knowing the rules of the hospital I am in employment under". Also, regardless of what the policy is, you should never say you will consciously disobey them. Sure, we're all opinionated and saving lives is always a good thing. The thing though is that on the clock, doctors are meant to follow policy, not dictate it. A doctor who commits insurance fraud will not keep his license for long.
