Professionalism in health care

The other two articles for this week, Health care providers and professionalism and Medical professionalism: Can it, should it survive? aren’t recent (one was 2005, the other 2000). How does the content or questions from these articles still apply today?
The authors of both articles also discuss how outside influences (societal and monetary/power) are in conflict with the ethics of care.

How do YOU answer that question? (Be specific and go deep!)
