Insurers respond to charge that 129 million people have pre-existing conditions.
Nearly two-thirds of doctors believe the quality of care will deteriorate over the next five years. What’s wrong with the remaining third? Not paying attention?

Doctor poll is very worrisome.
Two-thirds of doctors are pessimistic about the new health care law (ACA). Three-quarters believe the ACA will make reimbursements less fair. That doesn’t bode well for increasing the physician supply.
Good response on the part of the insurers.
I think the doctors are spot on. But why only 2/3? Why don’t all of them see this?
You think quality is going to go down? No joke.
This is nothing new. Most bills are wrttien to take effect a few years after they are signed into law. Even the budget takes place one year after being approved. People and companies need time to adapt to the new law. Do you think that we should start fining people today because they didn’t have time to react to the new law?
