      Something *like* this must be true and important, but the graph says the number of healthcare administrators quadrupled between 1992 and 1995. That’s not plausible. Anyone know of a reliable analysis?https://twitter.com/chasedave/status/950224258659098624 …

      David Chapman added,

      Growth of physicians and administrators 1970 to 2009. Virtually all growth is in administrators.

      By now, I'm sure everyone has seen this graphic but it's worth reminding this is where most of the headcount growth has come from. pic.twitter.com/Ilqhsno3aF

      The graphic says it comes from “Health Care Costs: A Primer” from the Henry J. Kaiser Foundation. That is online, and I couldn’t find this data there.https://www.kff.org/report-section/health-care-costs-a-primer-2012-report/ …

      I looked there as well and then noticed that the actual chart there is from a BLS source, though the kff primer discusses the same phenomenon. this blogpost has an updated version of the chart you linked http://real-psychiatry.blogspot.com/2017/08/why-there-are-no-bipartisan-solutions.html …

      the original study is probably this one https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12930930  but even though it says "free full text" on that page I can't seem to find it

      ah, here's one, with old data (stops at 1999, but that covers the period of largest increase anyway) with some more discussion of methodology http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMsa022033#t=article …

      Thanks! That shows a pretty steady increase, rather than the non-credible sudden mid-90s jump, so it’s more believable.
