my two cents---because it costs money! medicare keeps cutting reimbursements to doctors and hospitals. staffs are cut to save money. the smartest people don't see becoming a doctor as a good return on their considerable investment of time and money. everyone is doing more with less and yet patients are demanding more and better but don't want to make lifestyle changes for their health. just watch tv--don't modify your diet, take Nexium or a statin. costs are skyrocketing.
