For question 1: Health economics - either sloane and hsieh OR bhattacharya, Hyde and tu are basic undergrad health Econ books. Health policy - feldstein health policy issues is something I have used. There is overlap in coverage there but health Econ and health policy are somewhat different classes. David cutler also has two worthwhile and short books: the quality cure and your money or your life. Both are good. Question 2: - more medical schools - more residency slots - no restrictions on foreign doctors practicing medicine here - price transparency - proper incentives for consumers to care about what provider they choose - no employer provided health insurance. This is a source of many many many problems. Probably more but that’s off the top of my head right now
