    >since managed care went into effect in 1970, the number of doctors in America has risen approximately 200%. But the number of healthcare managers (administrators) has risen over 3,800%. In the same time frame (1970 to 2019) healthcare costs have risen 3,100% or on a per-person basis, from $353 in 1970 to $11,582 in 2019 (the dollar amounts have been adjusted for inflation). See healthsystemtracker.org. There are now 10 administrators for every physician in the United States.
