With the ridiculous salaries they will be offered and the poor shift organization they will find, even foreign doctors will last very little. Unless they are forced to sign long term "slavery style" contracts with penalties if they resign earlier.

Italy is turning to private healthcare, there's no way back. And the US demonstrate to the world that this is a winning model... right? right? oh sh*t...

I hope they offer our suicide pills in grape here in the States. I'd hate to bankrupt myself over end-of-life care only to get cherry.

Oh, and Cuba is horrifically poor, so even Italian health care wages probably feel like a good deal to them.
