Provider-induced demand, also known as supplier-induced demand, is a concept in healthcare economics where healthcare providers, particularly physicians, influence patients’ demand for services, potentially leading to unnecessary or excessive utilization of healthcare resources. This occurs due to information asymmetry, where providers possess more knowledge about medical needs and treatment options than patients, and can use this knowledge to their advantage.
I say: Follow the money. Why is the legislature lavishing money on mental health providers during the last two sessions? Cui bono?
