I've worked in healthcare law for a few years and I think the problem boils down to how it's regulated. It's super, duper complex with lots of paperwork. The complexity is too great to run a small practice, the Medicare/Medicaid fees are too small to make up for it, and it increases the importance of administrators in the hospital system. If I had a bunch of time I'd love to go through and write up a proposed alternative approach, and congressional bill -- but I have to imagine even if I did that, no one would listen to it.
