*And last time I checked, those limits for “Cadallac health plans” aren’t exactly that low…And this plan is going to be paid for by folks on the definition of wealthy being $200k/individuals $250k/family (estimated 3.5% tax increase).

It is just income over $200/$250k. So if you make $201k, you pay almost nothing extra.

*How do doctors feel about this? I know a few doctors that already refuse to take anymore Medicare people…Won’t this make it worse?

There are doctors who don’t accept specific health insurance either. Scipps Hospital doesn’t accept at least 2 big insurance companies in San Diego.
And honestly, if we are asking teachers, police and firemen to make sacrifices in this economic climate, why are doctors untouchable?
If someone feels that it is underneath him to make $200k a year as a specialist serving Medicare patients, fine. We can expand H1B program and import doctors who would LOVE to make $150k a year.
