Doctors incomes do not indicate they are the real problem with todays costs. They do make for a usable scapegoat though.

Many people travel to different countries where you can price shop and the outcomes are at least as good if not better than at home.

We as Canadians have a pre paid medical system. Yet a few pay above and beyond for operations outside the country. When the best treatment in the world is available for some of those operations in Canada. They never check they just assume.

One came out when a Canadian medical system doctor was questioned by an American senator. She simply told him that the Canadian that decided to have the complex heart operation done in Florida. He reffered to. That procedure was invented in Canada and we have by far the best outcomes in the world doing it. Question after question she just nailed his smug ass.
