"The cost of business is killing doctors"

More primary care woes:

“The nationwide average income for family physicians is around $120,000, and none of the doctors in my practice were making $100,000. We make less, probably $20,000 to $25,000 a year less than the doctors in other states.”

According to a recent national study by the Center for Studying Health System Change, physicians’ net income from practicing medicine dropped about 7 percent between 1995 and 2003.
