Depends on the individual provider, doesn't it? To be sure ... but isn't the MD, being the more limited resource, likely to be rushed and time limited?

Just because GE is closing down their solar production facility, why do you think everything will now be from a foreign source?? Alan It's cheaper, that's why. Did you read the linked article? Last week, Marlboro, Mass.-based Evergreen Solar (ESLR) said it would move panel production from its factory in Devens, Mass., to China next year in order to cut costs. Earlier this year, BP Solar (BP) announced it would close its solar panel...

Here is where the money will come from to pay for all this healthcare: http://www.impactlab.com/2009/11/09/cough-into-your-smartpho... Ma Bell Medicine is coming to a phone near you! Another reason not to share a cell phone :)

Just follow the algorithm? Then we don't even need a PA. A high school graduate can enter all the info into a computer, and the answer will pop out. BTW. alopecia and eczema are really just descriptive terms, not a diagnosis, since each has many different causes. You really believe all those 3 to 6 years of extra study and training aren't productive, that a fresh PA knows as much as somebody who has completed all of that high...

<<<<<<To be sure ... but isn't the MD, being the more limited resource, likely to be rushed and time limited?>>>>> Perhaps, in some cases......my internist is often an hour behind "schedule" by mid day, and I hate the waiting room waiting; but, once in the exam room with him it turns out the wait was worth it; as busy as he is, he has never...

We have a similar issue in law. An experienced paralegal vs. a newly minted lawyer, vs. a talented and experienced lawyers. Except for the most simplest of things, with no complicating factors (like a divorce with no kids, no major assets, no joint debts, and no real hassles) a paralegal, or heck, some forms off the Internet will probably suffice. However, if any simple complication arises, the paralegal, no matter how...

alevine: Surgical procedures are beyond the scope of practice of any mid-level. Yes, they can assist. But no hospital would allow them to perform surgery independently..... .....do they??!! Where in the world do you work?? Combat medics in Afghanistan, Iraq?

On occasision, someone brings up the question as to whether our message boards might actually move stock prices. In general, the response is "No". We communicate in our own world, and the news agencies, let alone the institutional investment houses, pay no real attention to us. But take a look at RMBS today: a nice little 9% pop, on double the average volume: http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=rmbs Now here's a link to a...

Will not outline its attributes again here Did you post about this stock on this or another board somewhere?

To some extent, yes, missash, MDs are over trained. Anyone who has attained a higher learning degree can probably follow a published flow chart (sorry, "treatment algorithm"). Clearly, as a fresh grad, I present to the attendings. But its typically more of a briefing. Its a team game. The more everyone involved recognizes that, the more patients the team can effectively push through without compromising care. Which brings me...
