Yahoo! News - Many Doctors Withhold Info From Managed Care Patients

No shit. Really? You mean if the doc knows my insurance won't pay for something shem won't tell me about it? 23% of doctors said they "sometimes" with hold information from patients on managed care while 8% said "often".

From the story, "The study found that doctors whose own salaries are closely tied to controlling costs were more likely than other doctors to report withholding information."

I'm shocked! /cringe/
