Doctors and Nurses I understand are not directly involved, but they reap the rewards and are close enough to be complicit. If Doctors guild's wanted this changed, they could. They have immense power. The problem might be that nobody knows what the answer should be: it may not be socialized medicine. But some basic things like price transparency, 'one price for all' (i.e. have to charge everyone the same price), requiring people to be informed ahead of time of the costs etc. might help.
