Healthcare economics often defy traditional market rules. For instance, "The Lemonade Stand Effect" in healthcare describes how opening a new facility might actually increase demand, as opposed to a lemonade stand where more stands decrease demand for each. This paradox occurs because new facilities can make people more aware of services, leading to increased use. Healthcare, it seems, often generates its own demand.
