a2 tribune may 14 1986 lower quality health care dear editor it saddens me to think so many people feel in conflict with their doctors because of the prop osed ban on extrabilling it saddens me that some dis miss the issue without thought of the repercussions saying doc tors make too much money anyway it saddens me that most do not care at all about the prospect of government and politician- controlled health care extrabilling is not an issue only four percent of family doc tors are optedout of ohip only some extrabill and none of these are in this area accessibility to health care is not an issue specialists who do not extrabill can be found with the help of your family doctor doctors are opposed to this bill because it will mean a lower qual ity of medical care for you and your children and your childrens children as time goes by why because if this bill is passed as presently proposed health care will become totally government controlled there is governmentcontrolled medicine in quebec such control presently means the physicians in the large cities have had their fee for services reduced by 30 per cent the purpose is to reduce the number of doctors in the cities the result is chaos in the emergency rooms due to under- staffing who suffers the sick govern mentcontrolled health care in quebec has meant ceilings on doctors incomes the result be cause of patient demand for ser vices is that ceilings are reached before the end of the year and doc tors stop practicing who suffers the sick as time goes by with govern ment and politiciancontrolled medicine the level of investiga tion of disease and care will be what the government can afford andor will dictate which will vary from government to govern ment and health minister to health minister you will not be free to obtain the most recent adv ances in medicine even if you are willing to pay for it physicians will have lost control and struggle to provide cafe in a tangle of bureaucracy red tape topheavy administration and politics cinics will replace the present doctorpatient relationship it will be a governmentpatient rela tionship and the doctors angry civil servants the option to extrabill is the physicians last bargaining tool with government removal leaves only strike which is un acceptable to myself and most other physicians just as many of you have found it necessary to form unions and belong to unions so will the next generation of doctors if stripped of their options fortyhour work weeks paid holidays retirement programs etc will be the right of doctors just as it is for any public servant kowever good medicine does not work well when an office closes at five oclock with eight patients sitting in the waiting room who suffers the sick this is the first time ive made a public statement if the people want governmentcontrolled medicine or receive it because of apathy so be it most doctors and most patients are happy with the health care system as it is lets leave it alone the government plans to take control of the pharmacists next after that who knows maybe you donald kemp md discount pet foods and pet supplies s pet valu coupon technical growth 20 kg
