I do not pretend to know what the solution is.
I do agree that our present form of medical PAYMENTS needs to be fixed.
When my appendix ruptured, I spent 5 days in the hospital.
Because the paperwork got messed up, I saw the “actual” bills, over $40,000. When the paperwork got sorted out, the insurance company paid (IIRC) $14,000.

Now, conceivably $14,000 over time, would be something I might have managed to pay. $40,000 plus? NO WAY.
