So what is it about heath care that precludes economies of scale?
Just to run with your nothing is selfish theme which is born of "the fear" whether you are willing to admit it or not.
When was the last cure for a significant disease announced as opposed to a 'treatment' which locks you into a life long drug regimen?
- yummyfajitas 17y agoSo what is it about heath care that precludes economies of scale? There is no fixed-cost capital investment that increases health care productivity dramatically. That is to say, the "health care factory" has not been invented yet. A hospital of 100 doctors is only (roughly) 100x as productive as 100 doctors individually (unlike manufacturing, where 100 assembly line workers >> 100 blacksmiths).
