  "abstract": "A fundamental tenet of economics is that while demand for goods and services is virtually infinite, their supply is limited. Worldwide, healthcare systems face shortages in clinicians, with an estimated global shortfall of 15 million healthcare professionals in 2020.1 These endemic shortages contribute to exhaustion among healthcare professionals who struggle to keep pace with unrelenting demand,2 and dissatisfaction from patients, who face long delays or hurried experiences of care. Healthcare systems have responded by instituting protocolised models of delivering medical care. While such measures aspire to achieve greater efficiency, they have been characterised as creating ‘industrialised’ medicine, a type of healthcare that privileges delivering bundles of activity and ‘check-lists’ rather than care that is tailored to the needs of patients as individuals.3",
