Why technology can change this work

  • decision-support systems compare symptoms with large datasets

What protects the occupation

  • clinical accountability and high cost of error
  • physical examination, procedures and care
  • a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
  • the physical environment is too variable for near-term full robotics automation
  • patient trust and holistic assessment
