What you gave us wasn’t a chain of reasoning: you just regurgitated the industry’s preferred excuses (“it’s complicated”, “people will use too much healthcare if it’s cheaper”, “liability!”) while begging the questions of whether those are true or why they affect the United States far more than any other advanced country. If you wanted to construct a logical chain of reasoning, that would be far more interesting than repeating another round of simply asserting that the status quo is inevitable.
If you need proof that delivering cutting edge services requiring split second decisions and multiple highly qualified people who are liable to the tune of millions of dollars for each decision is not complicated, then we are living on different planets.

You are welcome to explain why an insurance company would want to make things so complicated. They don’t make it so complicated for claims on a vehicle or a house. They are earning meager profit margins with the situation as is. There is literally nowhere they could go except up…why are they choosing not to?
And if you can come up with a more efficient system to administer insurance, I’m sure a few rich people like Dimon and Buffett and Bezos would be interested in your services. These two “titans” of industry couldn’t figure out how to make it better.
