Someone please enlighten me as to why in 2021 DOCTORS and DENTISTS are still completely separate in the healthcare system?
Danny I sincerely hope your team's efforts will accelerate the bridging of this divide.
- danparsonson 6y agoWhere I come from, you'll find orthodontists in hospitals along with all the other doctors. If you're referring to the dentists whose job is to clean you up regularly and tell you to floss more often, I guess they're a distinct profession from GPs because that part of the body benefits from regular specific maintenance by a trained professional, but they're still doctors.
- happyconcepts 6y agoHere in the US they offer health insurance and dental insurance as two completely separate programs. They are separated enough that it strikes me as remarkable.
