It's still a systemic problem, where admins' interests are not aligned with the health and experiences of patients.
- hundreddaysoff 3y agoNo doubt. I think that admins' interests not aligning with that of patients/consumers or with those of professionals/practitioners is making millions of people sad in a lot of other fields in addition to medicine. Ben Hunt has written some great essays about this nebulous concept. His phrases "industrially necessary" and "raccoon" come to mind. Is there a general solution? Dunno. But I suspect crafting even more regulation would be kinda like trying to make Wikipedia better by firing all the content experts and making all the admin-type people write all the words. It wouldn't result in a very good end product. I seem do my best work when I am left to my own devices and my contact with admin is minimal.
