...if all the physicians get paid the same per procedure, what is the only way to get paid more? Faster procedures? SUrely not higher quality ones. Or, maybe under the table illegal payments?

So goes the race to the bottom in quality and the amount of corruption in the system rises.

Funny how you totally miss such simple realities of economics.

Still laughing?
