    I would worry more if they amputated for free.

      Implication is that they amputate ONLY for money and not what is best for the patient.

          They dont' break it down by specialty. A surgeon definitely gets paid better to amputate. A internist definitely gets paid more to manage medically. The Mortician gets paid well when neither of them do their job. So each have their financial interests to treat a patient a certain way. to ignore that fact is foolish. It actually costs the system more to treat a diabetic foot ulcer medically than to amputate however, so that is where they are wrong.
