Wouldn't the obvious conclusion be that doctors don't want to be sued, so won't go out of their way to prove they were wrong?
If that is the reason, might we see more autopsies in countries where doctors are at a smaller risk of getting sued for a mistake?
Yes, but of course many other things differ in those countries so it won't be easy to draw a conclusion.
