(PRNewsChannel) / Salem, NH – The head of doctors group the Int’l Assoc. of Dental and Medical Disciplines (IADMD) is appealing to the presidential candidates to consider his group’s health care plan that cares for patients and puts doctors back in charge of medicine.
Dr. John J. Ryan, DMD was a live guest on POTUS ’08 on XM Satellite Radio: the new radio channel dedicated to the 2008 presidential election.
“I told listeners that there are surgeons being driven out of medicine,” says Dr. Ryan. “I know of a general surgeon who’s now doing cosmetic surgery so he doesn’t need to deal with insurance companies.”
Because cosmetic or plastic surgery is elective, it’s not covered by insurance.
Dr. Ryan says all the presidential candidates’ plans call for increasing premiums or taxes and reducing the rates doctors are allowed to charge.
“People think all doctors are rich and could afford to fill their practice with free care but with paying staff and overhead that’s not reality,” says Dr. Ryan. “The plans ask doctors take a pay cut while they take no cuts themselves. Insurance companies put their CEO’s needs in front of the patients and bask in the profits made by claim denials with low loss ratio perks.”
The IADMD health care plan puts doctors back in charge of medicine by appointing them to government advisory boards that oversee insurance protocols and rate hikes. Uninsured or underinsured would receive care from doctors who donate their services in exchange for a tax credit.
