Governments intervention will make things worst. Government do lawsy job in regulating marriage, education, road. What makes you think insurance will be better. But it's in a different thread.
Anyway, besides giving money, is there anything else we can do?
If you want health insurance, treat it like an insurance. Ask for those that are cheap but demand a lot of copay.
What is a good reasonable insurance? Me. I have only one insurance. Life insurance. If I die I got $100k. If I live I pay $200 per year. That's it. Looks to me insurance company knows that the probability that I will die less than .2% each year.
Then they will bitch I didn't tell them I am suicidal.
Anyway, get well Olden.
