The Association of American Medical Colleges has released dire projections for the state of healthcare in America in the coming years. The projections say “the U.S. will see a shortage of 46,900 to 121,900 physicians by 2032 in primary and specialty care.”
As CNBC reports, “as America’s population ages and demand outpaces supply, a physician shortage is intensifying.” Additionally, Americans are living longer requiring more physician care as they age which is “slicing the health-care industry in multiple ways.”
Dr. Atul Grover, the association’s Vice President said “we know older patients use two-to-three times as many medical services as younger patients, and the number of people over age 65 will increase by almost 50%, just in the next 10 to 15 years along.” read more
I wouldn’t want to be a cop either thanks to the Left! They destroy everything they touch!
I saw this coming along time ago.
Why go to college for 8 years & 2 years
resident to pay 25% salary to malpractice…
Thank God I am 65 and had a darn good life.
These young people are SOL..
A serious lack of medical doctors could mean an increase in suicides. If Dr. Kevorkian was still available he could be making a killing, I mean a lot of money.
That’s OK, the left will “fix” this problem in the usual way; force medical schools to relax their standards so more “disadvantaged youths” can obtain their medical degrees. Oh, and don’t forget muslim outreach.
The clinton/bush/Obama legacy of shit.
Anyone here had to find a doctor lately. I’ll have one for a year or so then they retire on me. Looking for a new one that’s not from a foreign country is getting tougher. Many are available from India, the mid east and the orient but I want an american doctor and they are getting very hard to find.
I think the standards have been lowered already.
I wouldn’t go to the bastards to use the restroom, after ShitbamaKare turned them into $15-an-hour democrap quislings. 😡
The doctors of America decided that playing cutesy, & footsie, & golf, with democraps & insurance companies, was MORE important than standing up for their profession. FUDGE ‘EM. 😡
I don’t give a damn, if they ALL go bankrupt & end up in a soup kitchen. The next doctor to see ME, will be the coroner. I wouldn’t give ’em the time of day, much less, my business. 😡
No worries. We will just import foreign trained docs whose education is suspect and their English limited.
Asking for an “American” Doctor is hate speech.
I want a doctor that looks like me.
On the horizon?
I got news for you.
There is no Doctor shortage.
There’s a patient overage.
2032? No biggy. Most will be dead from cell phone radiation.
