  • Anatomy and Atrophy of Medical Paternalism Robert F
    Anatomy and Atrophy of Medical Paternalism Robert F. Graboyes and Eric Topol MERCATUS RESEARCH Robert F. Graboyes and Eric Topol, “Anatomy and Atrophy of Medical Paternalism” (Mercatus Research, Mercatus Center at George Mason University, Arlington, VA, 2017). ABSTRACT Since Ancient Greece, a guiding principle of Western medicine has been pater- nalism—the idea that doctors have intrinsically superior insights, patients should defer to their edicts, and this asymmetry is a desirable state of affairs. In the 20th century, new medical knowledge and technologies accumulated at an unprecedented rate, and medical paternalism arguably reached its zenith. Now, however, new technologies are eroding the doctor’s privileged role by deconstructing, digitizing, and democratizing medical knowledge. Digital technologies and other breakthroughs offer unprecedented opportunities to save lives and cut costs. Along with self-interest, however, selective strains of risk aversion, technophobia, and egalitarianism among physicians are gener- ating resistance to the new reality. This article catalogs the motives for and impact of medical paternalism, the reasons for its decline, and potential policy responses that would ease the transition. JEL codes: I11, I13, I18, K2 Keywords: health care, healthcare, medicine, physician, doctors, consumer sov- ereignty, licensure, certification, regulation, prices, technology, digital health The Mercatus Center gratefully acknowledges the financial support of the John Templeton Foundation for research on healthcare policy in the United States.

    Zoom On: Dr. Eric Topol, Translational Science Leader Dr Eric Topol ******@***scripps.edu Cardiologist and Geneticist, Directs - Scripps Translational Science Institute, La Jolla, CA, USA Chief Academic Officer - Scripps Health Eric Topol, MD is a cardiologist and geneticist who directs the Scripps Translational Science Institute (La Jolla, CA, USA). He is also the Chief Academic Officer at Scripps Health, and a senior consultant at the Scripps Clinic’s Division of Cardiovascular Diseases. He is a professor of genomics in the Department of Molecular and Experimental Medicine, where his research focuses on individualised medicine and the interface of genomics and technology. In 2012, Dr. Topol was named the Most Influential Physician Executive in Healthcare by Modern Healthcare for taking on the topic of how big data will revolutionise hospitals and healthcare in general. In his 2012 book The Creative Destruction of Medicine, Dr. Topol addresses the topic of how healthcare stands to benefit from technology and the wireless age. The tools which are increasingly used by physicians and patients alike, such as mobile phones and pocket computers, are not only useful for their ability to connect doctors and patients. The greatest potential exists in their generation of health information that will serve researchers in ways that data from clinical trials cannot. Population-based studies are limited in the ways they can predict how patients respond to disease therapies, but personalised medicine that ultimately includes genomic sequencing and printing technology will change the way patients are diagnosed and treated. Dr. Topol has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine, and has received numerous awards including the European Society of Cardiology’s Andreas Gruntzig Award and the Thompson Scientific Award “Doctor of the Decade”.
