Mark great article. But nothing you write makes the case for ROCR. Spreadsheet analysis shows it to be a net loser. And once we are 'a bag of chemo' our specialty will suffer even more as it becomes easier to cut away at one code. Congress can't save us but dramatic reduction in the workforce via training could. But that won't happen.. the outlook is grim..

In a way - so very true. I think your "one code to cut" argument is one of the strongest arguing against this approach. My decision is simply attempting to choose the lesser of two evils. I don't have a crystal ball - but a legislative approach often gets sticky and slow to react and here - that might be significant benefit.
