There are definitely parts of healthcare that are unreasonable to expect to be commoditized. A heart transplant or brain surgery are probably things where centers specialized in those areas will be higher quality.

But for more common things like an annual wellness exam, or blood tests, mending a broken arm, treating the flu, or even doing surgery on a burst appendix, those are things that I think can reasonable be commoditized across any healthcare providers.
