> I don't see a problem with this, so long as doctors can earn a decent living. There's an enormous opportunity to disrupt doctors. Doctors, particularly in the US, are grossly overpaid for the value they deliver. As I said below, there's an extra $100-$250 billion a year that gets sucked up by doctors. Frankly, the vast majority of what doctors end up doing -- collecting information, analyzing it, prescribing a course, repeat -- does not warrant the salaries doctors commandeer. The industrialization of healthcare can't be done inside the existing system and the government certainly won't help which is what makes things tricky. But it's why you see Amazon, JP Morgan, Google and Uber starting their own healthcare companies and pushing into this industry more and more.

The current system, where a single doctor works obscene hours while spending 15 minutes with each patient, is just dumb.
