>Medicine, especially highly critical / urgent care, needs to be socialized and shielded off from all negative effects of modern-day capitalism if this is to change.

If anything it’s existing shielding is the problem. The supply of doctors is artificially controlled and limited which means you can’t lower pressure through capitalistic approaches. Without fixing the supply (more doctors) or demand (don’t treat patients) issue these problems won’t go away.
