[A free market is unfavourable for health care].
The new health care system in the Netherlands introduces a free market into the health care sector. Because health care lacks some essential conditions, a free market will not provide effective resource allocation in this sector. In addition, a free market leads to more bureaucracy and less solidarity, cooperation and freedom of choice. It also impairs the autonomy of the medical professional.
