You could do limited supply side bidding and some of that already happens, but proximity to care matters so much that I think structuring it like all the other emergency services (such as police and fire) is probably the right way to go. Urgency is the only maximizing function.
- onetimemanytime 8y agoPublic utility, no competition for emergency given how it works. Nose job or breast implants are another thing. Emergency prices linked to Medicare. But then, I can imagine them charging, say, $3800 to stabilize you with whatever surgery (there goes the urgency) and start billing you normally for the rest of the care. They'll make it back and then some.
