We Are Being Framed! How bureaucrats and bureaucracy have come to dominate healthcare
Abstract
This paper takes a stand against looking upon healthcare as a business. To apply business practices in a healthcare setting is rarely questioned. Lakoff's theory of framing is used to analyse this phenomenon and his advice on how to change the frame in a political context is suggested as one route to changing the frame in a healthcare context.
