Those individual professions are not all the same with the same responsibilities and should not be grouped together under one generic and in my opinion, demeaning terminology. They all worked long and hard for their individual degrees and should be given the respect they deserve by being recognized for their own achievements.
This provider terminology started with Hillary's first attempt at health care reform. I think there was a well thought out reason for it and it fits right in with what Obama is trying to shove down our throats.
Yes, I do have a personal interest in this since both my husband and I are in the medical field and are sickened by what is happening to our professions. I am also sickened by what is happening to me as a patient. There are no winners in this fiasco!
(I guess since I mentioned Obama's name, this will be moved to political)
