I N N O V A T I O N Doctors in the US spend about 25% of their time dealing with insurance companies

In Germany the adminstrative effort including documentation is at 50%.

Is this a good comparison? Feels like we're missing all of the US administration, insurance is just a part of it.

Barely, but doctors here in Germany are always complaining about difficulties they have with insurances. Especially the dozens of different public insurances. System here is an unconsolidated mess. Apart from having optional private insurance.

Like my doctor working on treatment and not being buried with administrative tasks.
