This is probably one of the most accurate portrayals of medical systems i countries with highly developed and sophisticated legal system. It's sad but one of those things that is only apparent once you're neck deep in it. The people who want to truly help patients are swept aside by those who are in positions to benefit themselves or their friends at the expense of others, including patients. Think administrators, bureaucrats, regulators. When this thread was raised the other day, I jokingly said how machines could never replace doctors. The reason is that you can't sue a machine that makes a mistake. Poor medical outcomes like how random flies get hit by cars on a highway. The powers that be will always insist a doctor be there to sign off. There needs to be a fall guy.
