| b. Health workers become part of a flexible workforce and are encouraged to compete, instead of collaborate, among themselves. |
| c. Worker unions lose power to influence the system and negotiate work conditions of behalf of affiliates. |
| d. The reform is an abdication of the responsibilities of the government to protect the population. |
| e. Physicians fear losing their professional autonomy. |
