It feels a bit like the medical profession is simultaneously restricting access to care from other groups (nurse practictioners etc.) while decrying their workload. Im not qualified to know who is right here but the market is strangely inelastic and I cant help but feel that cui bono would be quite the rabbit hole to go down.
Absolutely this. The Australian GPs body bitterly opposed nurse practitioners, pharmacists giving flu and covid vaccines, midwives in some states for example.
