Guess what "tsnapcracklepop" does for a living?

well, quite the lively debate. I have experience in the medical model also, so , Yes,we all have good and bad apples.

And, don't forget, that up until 1957, Osteopaths didn t prescribe or sell drugs(researched this while living and working the hospital in Kirksville, MO, home of Osteopathy, and working for descendants of the Still Family. (see Dr. Andrew Taylor Still, DO. " The Lengthening Shadow Of Dr. Andrew Taylor Still")

Have many DO friends who feel that the change ruined the profession.

The AMA strongly suggests that Osteopaths not "Manipulate" the skeletal system or talk about it.

The AMA owns the rights to the "HICFA" billing form used in the health care industry

Read up on the Wilkes vs AMA case in Sedalia, Missouri regarding systematic attempt at destroying a competitive profession by the AMA, the penalties, and how ALL the award money was spent.

Hospitals pay doctors based on how many orders were written per patient per month. (I worked for Humana for 13 years in the intensive care units, wanna see some outrageous billing and orders written?) Humana recruited nurses and paid them thru law school to interpret the health ins contracts to maximize billing and collections)

Liability insurance nearly prohibits an independent DO or MD from in office minor surgical procedures.

My liability insurance is low, because there is low risk in the way I treat patients.

Watch the evening news tonight, and count how many times you are asked by a drug company to "ask your doctor if this drug may be right for you" (and don't
forget the nausea, vomiting, GI upset, dizziness, sexual dysfunction / function (4hours LOL) etc disclaimer,)

The New Mexico chiros are going to be the first ones to prescribe and administer the drugs, and they will get free education and equipment from.....the drug companies.

I practiced in south Missouri for 2 years, with an osteopath, and in 2 years I never had to buy or bring my lunch....all courtesy of drug companies.

Regency, many chiros used to work for ins companies and tell stories of claims that went into the trash on friday at quitting time.

Just a little food for thought,

gotta get back to work,

they are lined up outside.

PS( Gatotom, say hi to my friends in Puyallup,WA.)
