Taylor and Michael Stevenson and researeh associate Paul Williams. Whe study also found that: @ Doctors are seeing more patients to raise their incomes — even though many already feel overworked; . a, one doctors in three believes in striking for @ Most doctors think their patients should be paying more for their treatment; and @ While doctors often complain about medicare as a matter of principle, they're reasonably satisfied with-the way the system works. The study, financed by a federal grant, was based on questionnaires completed in late 1982 and early 1983 by 2,087 doctors in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia. Taylor, Stevenson and Williams say the answers are probably representative of the profession as a whole. LOSING GROUND The vast majority of the doctors surveyed believe they are losing ground economically to other profes- sionals and need an extra $18,000 or so a year to meet their income expectatians. ‘That would give general practitioners in the five provinces an average net income of $84,200 a year before taxes. Specialists would have an average net income of $105,200. ‘The amount of the increases eyed by doctors varied from province to province and was based on estimates of what they thought other doctors were earning. Many surveyed said they considered their own incomes lower than those of their colleagues. One of the obvious ways for doctor sto boost their incomes without any change in their fee schedules is to see more patients. The survey showed that doctors had increased the number of patients they see each week during the previous 12 months by eight or nine per cent “specifically 76 pationts a week Doctors in rlond of doctors ale ciohoon so8s tions about the quality of care they-are able to give, tt r Yet, many see them for relatively minor problems. The survey sug gested that di has d an d demand for doctors’ services, causing more people to seek treatment for-frivolous reasons. The survey also touched issues often raised during fee disputes between provincial governments and their medical associations or in the running debate on the Canada health act now before the Commons. With the advent of medicare more than a decade ago, doctors had to bargain for fees with the provinces in frequently bitter and difficult disputes. Striking is generally viewed as the ultimate weapon against tight-fisted provineds, but the survey showed barely one-third of the doctors polled approve of that tactic. Nearly 55 per cent of the doctors approved of binding arbitration. , SETS PENALTY Another option in all provinces except Quebec is to bill patients for more money than doctors get from medicare. The Canada health act would penalize provinces that continue td allow extra billing after June 30. An overwhelming percentage of doctors surveyed opposed the proposal. Yet, more than six of every 10 doctors said they would support an end to extra billing if fee schedules were similar to those sought by their medical associations. Both the Canadian Medical Association and its because of the need to maintain an income.” Doctors in general practice saw more than 136 patients a week, worked about 48 hours and remained “on P! ial affiliates have for years that not enough money is being spent on health care and that hew sources of funds will have to be tapped in the future. i “© Detoils of these and other job opportunities are available at; ‘Trail Conede Employment Centre, (835 Spokane Street Phone: 368-5566 Experienced feral arranger required in Trail.
