Nope. Doctors will do better out of private healthcare because they earn more per patient. It's that simple.

There's talk of eliminating 'per-patient' compensation, and making payment 'outcome based'. This, the doc's don't like much.

And gets the actuarial guys more involved, figuring the odds that x treatment will have y outcome. The fear is: if the oddsmakers decide that the odds are not good enough, = denial of compensation/funding for that treatment.
