The doctors themselves have as much to blame for this too, not to mention most hospital administrators are MBAs with a healthcare background, they are not art students.
Medicine perpetuates a hazing culture of overworking residents thanks to a jumped up medicine pioneer who took too much cocaine. They refuse to come up with a way to train doctors at scale and instead restrict it to physical residency spots, keeping their compensations high. Train doctors like engineers, break up the medical unions and lobby groups with the anti trust act and most of the problems will be solved.
- SoftTalker 2y agoExactly, it's the AMA that's a big part of it. Doctors could stop this by just refusing to work that way. They are the ones with the knowledge and skills and licenses to do what they do, so they are ultimately in the driver's seat.
- rscho 2y agoRefuse to work that way?? And how are we supposed to do that? Stop working until our requirements are met and leave everyone on their own during that time? Who do you think people would blame? The C-suite execs? The only choice you really have is to leave medicine. After dedicating ten years of your life to it's study, a fucking huge debt and no guarantee of finding a better life elsewhere.
