Ah, you've just highlighted the problem with socialized medicine.
Without responsibility and accountability, there is no sense of doing
the right thing.  The system I fear the most with Obamacare.   While in
principle, socialized medicine sounds great.  In practice, not so much.
Ask those in Canada, the UK, Australia, Russia.  How's that working for
you?  

 

If you don't have a vested interest in the financial outcome, then the
less work the better.

 

My two cents.

THAT, Denice is the crux of the problem here, I work in a government
hospital 

where THEY DON'T value your expertise and skills.

 

ALL of our docs INCLUDING the Director are private Consultants who just
come 

in once a week or fortnight for a 3 hour session and then they're gone.

 

They treat the staff as though they were their own private practice
staff. 

 

HOW can a unit be run by a Director who is only there for one 3 hour
session 

every 2 weeks AND during the busiest Retinal Clinic when their is no
time to 

grab him to discuss udgrading equipment/software, or talk about staffing
issues, 

workload etc.. 

 

It is like speaking to a brickwall. They just don't get it !!!

 

Just don't want to "play their game anymore".
