Likely because some core components of health care cannot be comoditised via technology, there's still vast human involvement from diagnosis to surgery, all the way to social support of the aged. Everything is getting stretched at the edges by aging populations in most of the developed world meaning medical and technological advances don't even touch the sides.

I'm in the UK (NHS), I don't see a bright future for systems like the NHS or mostly private systems like the US. There's an extreme core cost which "systems" cannot make disappear.
