If medical advancement means lower medical cost

Tweet

Sometimes I wonder why medical advancement leads to higher and higher cost. The technology of operating a patient has changed so much, and now surgical robots are doing the job, while the surgeon just sits at a computer and directs the robots. In this case, the recovery should be faster, and the incision cut is short. It should lead to lower medical cost, and yet the medical cost is getting higher and higher. If ever technology improves to a level that we can DIY, that will be good. DIY to take out our own tumors at home definitely will save a bundle!
