Start with pricing. Open & public pricing would create competition among healthcare providers for your dollar and your healthcare needs. Emergencies excluded of course but it consumers had more control over how & where their healthcare dollars were spent, providers could be kept in check. Need an mri? Price shop it. Why should one procedure cost Sam 4k and Sally 3k just because they have different insurance? The costs to the provider are static yet the cost to consumers fluctuate based on coverage type.
Remove the collusion between providers & insurance companies & put the consumer in charge.
Every other insurance works with the consumer in charge. Need a new bumper because of a fender bender? The insurance company cuts you a check for 400.00 and YOU shop for the best deal. Might cost you extra or you might pocket 50 bucks. In the end it's your choice and your bumper is replaced.
No other industry hides their fees to the consumer until after services are rendered except the healthcare industry.
