As for paperwork costs I don't know as much about them. If you have any experience with the health care system, you know that nothing is computerized. Just last week I had a chest xray the report from which took five days to get to my primary care physician who referred my to a lung guy and xeroxed some paper which she mailed to me and which could barely be read so that I could carry it to him when I saw him. Waste of time and money. If Krugman's figures on percentage of costs attributed to paperwork, there's a big opportunity there.
