Bucks Montgomery Physician Summer 2021 - 5

Reform in the prior authorization process would
streamline healthcare delivery resulting in decreased cost
and yielding more timely diagnosis and treatment for
our patients. This will require action by the legislature
and the governor. If not for PAMED and the Bucks
CMS, as part of a coalition with specialty societies
and patient advocacy groups, who would fight for our
patients and our ability to deliver their healthcare?
Who would fight the " non doers " who are constantly
telling us who are " doers " how to practice medicine?
Finally, looking at the long term, what is the legacy we
will pass on to those who come after us? I believe that on
many levels there is an attempt to brainwash physicians
into believing that we are providers. This is done to
dominate us. When I finished 26th grade with a specialty
in Cardiology, inside me was an understanding that this
is not just a " job " . We are professionals, not providers.
We earned that right and must push back on the " non
doers " who want us to accept the provider status.
Vertical integration of healthcare has made physicians
more vulnerable to " non doers " . If private practice
were to become not viable then where would vertically
integrated employed physicians go if they feel their
patients' care is compromised by their employer. The
next generation is being taught to see themselves as
providers, which is why the Bucks CMS must help our
resident members understand their worth. We will actively
engage the increasing number of physicians in residency
programs in Bucks County to initiate this process.
We continue to greatly appreciate those who support
us through your membership. We intend to earn
that trust as the Bucks CMS has in the past as we
move forward through challenging times ahead.
