An idle idea I’ve had is that the healthcare bureaucracy in the U.S. can get so bad that one wishes one can hire a lawyer-type of role to navigate it as a paperwork proxy of sorts. But perhaps greater scope is needed- a personal medical advisor who has the domain knowledge, while being independent of the incentives that drive others in the health system.

I suppose in the past that would just be your family doctor, wasn’t it.
