I take the 40,000 foot view. Medicine became too expensive because the law of supply & demand was not allowed to operate, due to the intervention of the AMA. That’s why more than 200 applicants to medschool are rejected for every one accepted. As a result, the guvmint tried their statist/librul solution, which is represented by Obamacare. Neither side has it right.
The result has been a flood of foreign trained doctors who qualify to practice here, over whose training the AMA has exercised '0' influence, except in after-the-fact testing.
In addition, medical schools practice the same perverse admission policies as colleges, universities, police departments, and corporate HR .... that is a normal white man has about the same chance as the old camel-through-the-eye-of-of-the-needle thing.
Yup, and that has been going on for a LONG time. Back in the mid-1960's, my cousin and I started college together. I was then in engineering, and he pre-med. He did wonderfully on all his medical-related (comparative anatomy, microbiology, etc., etc.) courses, but due to a poor school background in math, did poorly on a couple of physics courses. Those low grades in physics kept him out of med school.
It's easy to get into law school. They are not as expensive to maintain as a teaching hospital. That's why we have so many lawyers rotting and stinking up the country. See my post above. It's all about the infrastructure. Doctors must have hospitals to treat the sick. It's more than clinical care.
