- nine_zeros 4y agoPoint 2 is very important. All the prior authorization paperwork, forms, sequence of tests are not necessary. Those are imposed by regulations and insurance on the providers. Outcomes are not any better due to that. You don't need to go much further than Asian countries to see how less paperwork makes things move fast.
- cudgy 4y agoRemoving unnecessary paperwork and the private insurance model altogether is great. Removing regulations and reasonable standards of care for doctors is the nightmare.
- nine_zeros 4y agoYes, there are two types of bureaucracy. It is not too hard to figure out which of them is unnecessary garbage. Reasonable standards need to exist. But asking patients to drive an hour to sign a document for a treatment 4 months later is not acceptable.
