One massive way to reduce healthcare costs is to remove caps from becoming a doctor; as long as you pass the tests and meet the requirements, why are we turning doctors away? So that existing doctors can be paid well above the market rate. There's a reason there's so many doctors in politics - it's very important for them to protect this business model.

Uh... politics is almost uniformly lawyers and business people.

Also tests are the table-stakes to being a doctor (like leet code and programming).
