It’s interesting to compare doctors to this crew of income-makers.
At least doctors (and my guess, Kevin, is that you’re like me and not making anywhere near these “selected” doctors’ incomes) put together their income by doing work, bit by bit, procedure by procedure. Where’s the equivalent with these guys, even the CEO of Beth Israel?
The logic with them is that, “Well, this is only X% of the total net income for the company.” So the bigger the company, OBVIOUSLY the more they should make.
If health insurance companies have to layoff workers, increase insurance premiums, reduce payments to increase those profits, well, so be it.
