    My hot take is that robotic surgery is the biggest scam and the DaVinci people are laughing all the way to the bank

        I truly never understood the benefit in most specialties. How do they even market this to surgeons? Can you even bill more for this? Wouldn’t it technically be LESS work from an RVU perspective?

        It's just a human surgeon with some microchips taped to their face.

        I agree. Look for RCT evidence of improvement in patient-centred outcomes ... how they feel, function or survive. I’ll wait.

        Case in point - compared with open radical prostatectomy, the costs of using the robotic system are relatively large while the health benefits are relatively small. http://www.hqontario.ca/Portals/0/Documents/evidence/reports/hta-prostatectomy-1707-en.pdf …

        Trying to learn here. Why is it a scam?

        Because studies show outcomes for most surgeries are not significantly improved to justify the fact robotic surgery costs double what a typical larposcopic surgery costs (prostate surgery excepted)
