Sorry, but I believe 12 years is way too generous! In fact, this is happening already to some degree with some insurances. And guess what? — they are NOT using doctors, but nurses, pharmacy techs, ‘specially trained agency representatives’, etc. Perhaps Watson is the answer… hook him up to a CPOE machine with drone and robot delivered medication capability, and perhaps we can bypass humanity altogether!

I think there will be “CGI docs” with no need for a real meat-style doctor for recordings and such. Just a pipeline to Watson. Take all the time you want.
