i have a close family friend who is a doctor and happens to own her own clinic. She has told me numerous times that, between the insurance companies (of which she has discontinued working with a few) and the state medical boards regulations, the costs incurred with both of these entities is a major part of her expense.
Now, looking at medical care in a free market atmosphere all we would have to do is let doctors set the rates without the insurance companies. That alone would induce more people to become doctors. After that, competition between doctors, medical supply companies, pharmas, and anything else associated with the medical industry would keep costs of services as low as possible. People would then be free to pay for only the care that they actually need and it would be less expensive than paying the insurance industry.
