There's a work ethic crisis. Increasingly American medical schools turn out physicians who are more concerned with personal gain than patient care. This intrinsic conflict of interest breeds a form of professional slothfulness that literally permeates every aspect of modern healthcare. Until physicians take back the responsibility and regain the trust placed by their patients we shall continue to have to deal with illusory issues such as this. There is no need to break the backs of housestaff simply to continue to allow lazy attending staff to continue to abdicate legitimate patient-care duties. Academic physicians should go back to the old-fashioned way of making money- earn it. There is no manpower crisis. There’s a work ethic crisis.
