Obama passes Healthcare bill !!!!! - glipizide - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8429345.stm My perception, IMGs will not be affected adversely. Probably there might be more residency slots??!! Doesn't say about any visa restrictions anywhere!! Let me see what you guys think!! 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 Where is the money to increase residency spots???????? 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 are you kidding of course in the long run it will affect IMG's..remember that funding for residency spots comes from medicare..this is cutting into each state budget for medicaid and medicare especially NY which will take a 1 billion dollar cut in the 1st year alone..if anything this will definitely negatively impact us, but i see absolutely no way it can have a positive impact on us..not sure obviously just based on facts presented however only time will tell 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 yet to be signed by bo; actually its harry "dirty" reid that got it passed at the moment. 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 can anyone tell me is that going to affect doctor's salary (PCP and subspecialty) ? 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 yup, you will earn lower, and if in a govt setup, your medicaid money will likely never come to you... they have to bend the cost curve, you see.. subspeciality should be ok. pcp will see no change or less. question is: are you giving up your residency position coz of that?? ![]() 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 never. just wondering what changes i can expect. 0 - ArchivalUser - 12-24-2009 so ....emm....who passed?
