Push or Pull Process?
So now everyone is an expert as knowledge is abundant. Unfortunately a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. The community wants to make informed decisions which is wonderful. There is a larger amount of misinformation available, blatant propaganda that is highly polished and excellent at marketing its self-interest.
Sounds good to the politician who wants to reduce the costs of health care, reduce the power of the medicos. So we cut the numbers of doctors in training producing a shortfall. Doctors work such long hours that they have no time to consider what is happening to them. Offer then assistance, albeit poorly qualified or experienced, nurse practitioners, physician's assistants, administrative managers and in the spirit of meekness they are grateful. Before long the doctor becomes a rubber stamp, just sign here, take full legal and ethical responsibility but don't ask any questions. Sounds scary? Well it is happening under your very noses. As the state government run health services all seem to be run into the ground, starved of resources, rife with chaos and bullying, doctors escape and there is the "proof: that you don't need doctors to run a health service and federal government take over. It is already happening!
