Who pays your doctor’s salary, and should it matter to you?

When I took the Hippocratic oath, I was under the impression that physicians are trustworthy, honest and forthright, their primary tenant being do no harm. With the goal of doing no harm, doctors’ decisions should be carefully made in the best interests of their patients. However recently I've had to question, does this oath protect you from the influence others have over your physician and the decisions they make for you?
Unfortunately, after deep contemplation, the answer is a resounding NO. Physicians, like everyone in our complicated society today are inundated by a barrage of outside influencing factors. Most pronounced being the maintenance of one’s medical license, and the influence of the insurance companies which extends throughout the traditional healthcare system. Years, sometimes decades, of literal blood, sweat and tears, after grinding through doctorate level medical courses, internships and residency programs, and after mountains of debt, obtaining and maintaining a state medical license is the only way a physician can make a living. The medical license has become the primary mechanism of control that keeps physicians prisoners within the broken healthcare system. A system that is no longer interested in the health of an individual, but in the guise of "the greater good" ends up treating humanity as livestock. Furthermore, over decades the medical industry has devolved into a free for all where healthcare administrators are self-empowered to dictate to the physicians. They attempt to dictate what medications the physician may or may not use, what interventions they can prescribe, what recommendations they can or can't make and what vaccinations they should give and must take. As a result, some of the most exceptional, critical thinking physicians are now long gone from these facilities. They have been ushered away by burdensome regulations, increasing licensure requirements, and cookie-cutter, guideline-driven medicine.

But all hope is not lost, we don't need to go down with our ailing healthcare system, fortunately there are healthy alternatives available. When it comes to your health early intervention is always best. Take steps now to avoid being injured by overworked, cookie cutter medical decision making and 3rd party influences by finding a Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice.
These small local practices walk away from the insurance industry and receive their income directly from you, their clients. This means that the only influence that your doctor is minding is YOURS. What's important to you is what’s important to your DPC provider. Without the burden of the insurance companies’ bureaucracy, cost is kept down meaning that DPC practices usually have much smaller patient panels. As a result, you will enjoy prompt and open communication directly with your provider. DPC providers focus on holistic, preventative care and healthcare maintenance without the waiting room!

So, find a DPC provider near you and be sure to check out www.2ndOpinionMD.info for information about my DPC practice, products and services.
