The residency system is going to have significant competition regardless of the amount of slight increase in artificial competition that you remove; high levels of natural competition will remain.
- ethanbond 3y agoSure, no one is complaining about “high levels of natural competition.” They’re concerned about an extraordinary level of artificial competition that is causing kids and adults to kill themselves, extremely high care prices, and extremely low quality of care.
- ProllyInfamous 3y agoThis is all correct, IMHO, and in addition: so many physicians have complained to me, in private/confidence, that they don't try to "help, above and beyond" anymore simply because they feel helpless, ineffective to implement actual useful changes to a profoundly corrupt system of pay-to-live healthcare. When you're at a point that 45% of US healthcare (already the most-expensive, GDP%-wise) is already paid for by a US government entity... we might as well admit that a single-payer system MIGHT make a little more sense.?! Perhaps.?! -- myPOV: dropped out after intro ER med school rotation, 15+ years ago.
