Doctors are a diverse group and I don’t think there is a common voice. I am a physician and would be thrilled to have a universal payer system. Currently there is way too much overhead in dealing with so many insurance companies. We’re already paying for the healthcare of the uninsured (through emergency care, disability checks to those whose disability could have been prevented, and community clinic subsidized by state/federal programs)so I don’t see why we don’t do it in a way that makes sense and would be cheaper (ie preventative care).
