The Economics of Medical School

Supply and demand rule the world, even in the world of health-care. The recent health reforms have struck a major blow in making health care affordable and accessible to all, but there are likely still other ways to increase the availability of health care to America, and even to the world. One of the most simplistic ways to accomplish this increase is with a greater number of doctors. Again, supply and demand has a huge effect upon the nature of the health care system. Part of the reason that health care is so costly is that there are not enough doctors to bring the cost down. This may not be a very large part of the issue, but it is an element of it, and it can be solved by making some changed to the medical school system.
