> I would much rather be able to request services in the way Amazon allows you to buy products than continue to engage in the current opaque system. Is a system where n% of the care is provided by unqualified/unlicensed providers masquerading (indistinguishably) as other, qualified providers, where the reviews are invariably fake, and from which both customers and providers can be banned from the system with no recourse for arbitrary reasons really something we want? Not to mention that people are different in their health needs, responses both physiological and psychological to treatment, and in their goals for healthcare. I didn't think much could make the US's current health system less transparent or effective, but on reflection I think Amazon taking their current marketplace strategy and applying it to the health industry with a wide brush might just do the trick.
