U.S doctors earn Top salaries and this is one of the reason why affordable health insurance in Brentwood is difficult to find .
Accordingly to an analysis from researchers at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health the U.S. spends much more on physician care than Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the U.K. do. In 2008, the U.S. spent roughly $1,600 per person on physician care; the rest of the combined nations that belong to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, just over $300. That’s more than 80 percent less. The higher spending on medical doctor results into higher incomes for doctors. U.S. primary care doctors, although frequently considered underpaid, nonetheless earned more on average ($186,582 a year, after practice expenses, but before taxes) than primary care doctors in any of the other countries studied. Orthopedic surgeons, the specialists examined in the study, also earned the most in the U.S., with an average salary of $442,450, well above second place U.K. orthopodicss, at $324,138.
As of now the health care reform has not question the top dollar U.S. salary for doctor or nurses. But you must question, if doctors of countries such as Germany and France are really half as qualified as the US doctor, as they earn less than half the salary. I doubt this very much.
Anyone serious about health care cost control needs to review the US salaries for doctors and nurses. Only in reviewing every step of the health care cost, will we be able to offer affordable health insurance in Brentwood.
