Default I believe the point being made is no matter what waiting room

in the future, after adding 20-30,000,000 more to the health care roles with NO increase in doctors or NO increase in medical facilities...there is going to be a major impact on the pace of care.
And the rude ones will get their share.

Also factor in the potential complications if/when they cut doctors reimbursements by up to 25%...some will stop taking new medicare patients...some will limit existing medicare appointments...and some will get out of the business.

The waiting rooms will be fuller....the waits will be longer...and the care much more expensive for our out of pocket expenses.
Enjoy what you have now while you have it.
