Jo: I've been going to a hospital where all the physicians are on salary. I think it's great. They spend a lot of time with patients. I'm not for for "results" pay, because the best doctors have the worst patients. I would be a poor result for anyone! It's only because doctors are willing to take on patients with poor prognoses that they get help.
Zilch: "I wish we all realise that money was meant as a medium of exchange to serve mankind and not to be the master which would govern every single aspect of our lives." I agree, and think public discourse about healthcare is too focused on cost. I mean it's important, but not as important as people. I think that gets lost.
