Or, you do the rational thing that many other nations have done and decide that healthcare is a human right, then stop playing hot potato with the ticking bomb of healthcare.
America is the only one with this very unique problem and going further in the direction of a 'free market' won't work. Because healthcare can never be a free market. The insurers have an incentive to not give quality healthcare and give people the bare minimum while hiding details from customers and no amount of freedom would solve this. The end result is that you'd see something like ISP companies where they work together to enforce a regional monopoly and gouge people all the same.

Veterinary services and dentistry aren't in the same situation though.
And you can have both a public option alongside a free market.
