    My biggest problem is some schmuck who I doubt has a medical degree, and has never seen me as a patient, but has absolute power over what a MEDICAL DOCTOR deems necessary.

    At that point it really begins to sound like practicing medicine without a license to do so, let alone the knowledge required to get an MD.

      Oh I’m sure they have a corrupt MD in their chain somewhere. I had a classmate in pharmacy school who was a lawyer and had no intention of being a regular pharmacist (retail or hospital). He just needed a PharmD to go with his JD to get a specific job in the insurance industry.

      He told me it was to help keep them abreast of law changes but I’m sure they pressure him to provide a cheap yet legal solution. Probably have a JD/MD doing the same for medical procedures.
