Bad and good comparison. The bad part: unlike tech, a doctor consultation is really hard to transfer across border. The good part: the US is not a destination for doctors’ (not medical) exports. If we consider medical tourism as doctors exporting their expertise. In this case, the industry has failed to attract this additional flow and actually lost some (since many Americans will go outside of the US to seek medical professionals). All of this for the profit of some doctor’s establishment.
