Thats the idea. Bankrupt the shitty institutions that are careless or make too many mistakes and let the good ones grow. Kind of like performance reviews we get in the industry (not to say they aren't flawed but still)

Yes. The solution for high medical costs isn't less lawsuits, it's UHC.

United Health Care is pretty bad. They are always finding some excuse to not pay. I suggest Blue Cross Blue Shield, at least the PPO.

I'm not GP, but UHC = universal health care, presumably single payer health care
