Sunset

You may be asked: What could be worse than giving you money?

Well, without extra manpower and beds to treat more patients, one may waste the resource and give expensive but unnecessary treatment. That's not too bad.

But, if the extra funding is only given for one year (for example, as I learnt from this gangsters' meeting, the money from our famous Resource Allocation Exercise), how are you going to continue with the expensive treatment with the regular budget?

Maybe we should add a sunset clause to the consent form and sign it with the patient before starting any new treatment.

PS. Another inexplicable happening of our lovely solar system is how a new hospital block (and more spacious than the old one) could be constructed without adding more hospital beds. Besides the feasibility of putting up camp beds, what else could it be?
