re: #297 SixDegrees

One of the problems with the current system is that doctors and hospitals are paid by the procedure rather than by out come or by patient. This means that doctors are encouraged to perform unneccesary procedures because they get paid for them whether they are needed or not.

I think there needs to be flat fee per patient with bonuses paid out based on measurable outcomes, like readmission rates to hospital, infection rates, etc.
