Another thing that is needed urgently is uniform pricing. Today healthcare providers charge different amounts to different insurers, and if you don't have insurance you pay list price. The list price is a arbitrary large number (often 3x the price insurers pay) that has no relation to reality. So if you don't have insurance, you are hit with a double whammy: You have to pay the bill yourself, and if that isn't bad enough, they charge you 300% of the "real" price, meaning what insurance companies pay for the same procedure.
