I think we've got plenty of mediocre and flat out terrible practictioners out there. I don't think I want anyone who is mediocre diagnosing my child or prescribing medications, performing surgery etc. But I'm totally okay with a PA or a nurse under the direct supervision of an MD performing many of the routine tasks MDs do during regular office visits.

But...if I take my kid to the dermatologist, and he never sees the MD, is it right for the MDs office to charge me the same fee for an office visit as if he'd seen the MD? Even though the PA makes far less money?
