Healthcare's Moral Crisis: Individual Complicity Over Systemic Flaws

A Forbes contributor argues that the core problem in American healthcare is not systemic flaws but rather the moral failings of individuals within the system. The author posits that decent people accommodate unacceptable practices due to convenience, risk aversion, or exhaustion, leading to a moral crisis rather than a financial or technological one. Objections to this premise, citing incentive structures that punish courage and reward revenue preservation over patient outcomes, paradoxically reinforce the author's point by demonstrating how individuals rationalize their actions as realistic rather than morally compromised.
