Yes Mike~

You are so right!

My short (and long) term memory is pretty impaired these days and I totally

spaced about the restraint of trade issue.

The malpractice insurance company that I worked for is totally owned by the

practitioners and low and behold ... the Trust DID NOT insure Chiropractors but

does, of course insure DO's.

You make a fine point ... there are not too many people who are not " in the

business " who even cared enough to follow that whole mess.

I am glad you bring it up. Standard of care (don't get me going on that

right now!) is NEVER in the forefront ... business is business no matter if the

business is saving/keeping lives. Been in a working relationship with health

care professionals for over 20 years and that has never changed no matter how

much propaganda out there tries to spout. That is why.... I AM SUCH AN ADVOCATE

of the patient taking on the aggressive roll in the creation and maintenance

of the physician/patient/staff relationship. The patient is the only one ...

in the end ... that will not flake out on the patient!

Unless, of course, they have memory impaired EDS. In which case,

how would they know if they did or did not?
