Uber-Surgery. They'll automate as much as possible and then an underpaid remote surgeon will step in for any difficulties. Thousands will die on the table.

Ah fuck you have a point. They'll just hire foreign doctors to do the surgeries for higher pay than they would make in their own countries but lower than what you would have to pay an American doctor.

US doctors about to get boned when they don't have a union.

It's the neoliberal formula; Automate as much as you can, gig-afy what requires a human touch. And yeah, as you say, even better if they can offshore the human touch.
