Any changes in salary? Any changes in demand for job? Please include any significant changes in the jobs of doctors. I'm thinking over the next 15-25 years.
That probably depends on business skills. The average may drop but there will still be those making >400k/year for sure (a good number too).Demand will remain. There is a constant inflow and outflow of doctors.
Salary will decrease over the next few years as the baby boomers move through. I wouldn't anticipate salaries dropping much more than this initial decrease and I would expect them to remain pretty steady/level for some time after that. I highly doubt they will increase after medicare makes these initial cuts.
It's also entirely possible that U.S. medicine transitions to a single payer system which would also force down salaries.
Either way, you won't be making a million dollars a year anymore, but you will still live very comfortably. Think BMW over Ferrari, and you will be fine.

In 20 years, people are going to be having the same exact discussion as on here. Nothing major will be done to the health care system until it is on the verge of collapsing.
On the bright side, there will probably be tort reform in the near future, which should reduce malpractice costs. Doctors and lawyers fighting....pass the popcorn

This one goes in your mouth, and this one goes in your butt. No, wait a second... This one... This one goes in your mouth, and this one in your butt.
I don't know, but would you mind telling me how many GB the typical cell phone will have in 20 years? Could you tell me what you're going to wear on September 3rd, 2031? Do you think I'll make it on time to work on October 6th, 2040? How many trees will I have in my front yard? Will I ever win the lottery? Will Hawaii have a professional football team? Will Puerto Rico be a state? Will we go to war with Iran? What about North Korea?
Thanks in advance, Nostradamus.
