A reasonable unintended consequence of the healthcare reform bill. "But it might not be so easy. Blogging doctor Jay Parkinson makes a good point: …if 50 million uninsured people become newly insured , ER waiting times should significantly worsen as more newly insured people attempt to find primary care docs to no avail and turn to the one stop shop of the ERs simply because they ...
