1)There is a term that has been coined by researches as "Field of dreams" Effects. "Field of dreams" is a 1989 American drama film about a basketball player. In between 1994 and 1995,there has been many deaths of Medicare aided patients. This has been directly proportional to the number of hospital beds per thousands of residents in the community. This has been compared to the film. Physicians frequently fail to meet the patient demands and even restrain themselves from getting trained and this is directly affecting the healthcare system.
