| Message | The medical profession will be less reserved in practising medicine. We believe certain surgeries are not performed because of the risk possible lawsuits. This behavior causes unnecessary deaths. Furthermore the medical profession has to pay high insurance contributions. So, the insurance companies profit most from the current situation. Time for a change. |
