In this episode, Scott Becker calls attention to the growing physician shortage in the U.S., emphasizing that despite advances in technology and support roles, the healthcare system cannot function without more highly trained doctors.
What is the main issue regarding doctors in the U.S.?
This is Scott Becker with the Becker Private Equity and Business Podcast. Today's podcast is titled, We Need More Doctors Now. So here's the issue. We are becoming so short doctors in our country that this is a disaster happening right in front of our eyes. And Jess, notwithstanding all the discussion about everything,
We need very tuned in, very smart doctors to help diagnose and take care of our people in our country and to make sure things are done correctly. You can argue all that you want that preventive health, technology, artificial intelligence, physician assistants, and nurses will take care of all these problems. And I think they're all helpful.
But at the end of the day, we also need the best and brightest doctors very badly as well. This is our core thought for the day. We're watching the health care system become dauntingly short of doctors in so many places so quickly that it's damn frightening. Thank you for listening to this rant on the Becker Private Equity and Business Podcast. Thank you very much.
