Bureaucracy comes with size. I have come across large private companies
that are more bureaucratic than government agencies.

Of course, which is why I was not proposing replacing state run
megaliths with privately run megaliths.


But you are, when an organisation is larger than the British army how are
not going to have privately run megaliths, and don't just say split it up as
that would just increase the problems (both from an organisational PoV but
also for the patients).

Successive governments have allowed the NHS to grow like topsy into
the mess it is today.

Once you get past the assumption that one needs to have a centrally
run system, it all becomes much simpler.

Private sector healthcare providers would compete for the best medical
staff and the best but minimal administration. Natural selection
would result in the incompetent being left out of the equation.
