I was having a conversation with a friend last night during the debate. She’s on board with the quick transition to a universal system. I’m still more in the medicare as market participant model. But one of the questions I had, and I’m wondering what some of you think about on this, is:

if we go to a Medicare for All, socialized medical insurance program, how do we determine what we pay doctors? Meaning, how do doctors in private practice make their businesses work? How do we ensure they are able to cover their overhead and pay nurses and staff a livable wage?
