Updated: 2025.05.10 5M ago 1 sources
Apply the housing YIMBY playbook to medicine: attack veto points, expand supply, and restore real prices. Priorities include repealing certificate‑of‑need laws, widening scope‑of‑practice, allowing more diverse insurance products, improving price transparency, and aligning incentives for long‑term health. — This reframes health reform around supply and governance rather than perpetual funding and coverage fights, creating a clear agenda for cross‑ideological coalitions.
