My own experience has been that engaged patients get the best outcomes and that healthcare is so complex that only the patient can really control what is going on. This is no different from my clients in technology consulting - only the tr

To be sure is not an impossible thing to deal with - but the 'cost of sale' is so high as to make it easier to just let patients suffer and die.

Check-lists in medicine (and real life) are a lot more complex depending on the protocol and the patient and are more akin to complex business process flows - around which a whole industry has grown. A colleague in psychiatry spent 12 mont
