Do you consider the amount that the US spends per capita on healthcare relative to other countries for the same standard of care a "failure" of the healthcare industry? Or is there some other reason healthcare "just costs more" here?
Also wondering what you think a solution is - single-payer for better and simpler price negotiations, or some other approach?
My main concern is if we're spending 20% of GDP on something other countries accomplish with 10%, then that's a huge waste, especially in a country with a larger total GDP pool.
