I developed a talk about patients and doctors and politics and hospitals From my notes. I see the questions are still the same but the answers are changing This should be a boring column today, so read something else if you want to Many of us still value the warm relationship which can exist between patients and nurses and doctors, even though the "old family doctor" (wonder why "old"?) Is decades away Young docs are admirable, too House calls are not so much, but office calls are of much higher quality ias far as getting at disease is concerned' We used to lie willing to give some care without charging, and now the pious politician insists, "Oh. you should be paid for your services " The telephone is a boon, so much more can lie done per unit of time Patients' Increasing understanding helps, too. in delivering care Practicing medicine is a joy. as job satisfaction goes, and many of us are willing to "overtime." to make a good living Rural areas are special, it's always miles to somewhere and that surely sorts out emergencies When I started practice, hospitals were "last resort", now, happily, they are a good "first resort" for many conditions All of the above, plus public health concepts, mix together to give us forever better options, and inevitably, more impressive costs Someday, we ll have to decide prevention is worth more, that nature’s efforts are still an ally, that all of us can't have "all the treatment all the time so we'll have to share some rationing, that we can or can't have the government pay for it all. and that America s a pretty good place to be The public is invited to attend.
