Just curious... what government health care regulation do you find most unnecessary?

Coming soon to a Coven near you... "HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) - Tribal healers, often known as witch doctors, are to be permitted to give patients official sick days recognized by employers, the state media reported Wednesday. Deputy Health Minister Edwin Maguti told a gathering of traditional healers and herbalists that only members of the 1,500-member state-approved Traditional Medical Practitioners Council would be allowed to grant sick leave of up to a week, the Herald newspaper, a government mouthpiece, reported. As government health services crumble in the ailing economy, the move is seen as part of efforts to improve the collaboration of traditional healers in providing health care. Maguti said medical doctors would also be encouraged to refer patients to traditional healers for additional treatments.
