factor of 10 over what they would sell the same product for to non-health care areas

That's a key statement.

So these same people charge less for the same product in other fields.

Why?

The reason has to do with the construction of the healthcare industry. Lots of regulations. Lots of middlemen. Laws designed to destroy innovation. Very little transparency for costs and outcomes.
