I think an essential missing component of current healthcare system everywhere, and not just in the US and Canada, is a focus on prevention. As it stands most doctors don't do zip for you unless you are in need of treatment. But a proper healthcare should focus on optimal health and enhancing health rather than just treating illness. The family practitioner should be tracking various health markers (and not just cholesterol and BP) and nudge you in the right direction rather than just brush various deterioration under the rug because they are within the population norm for your age. And one should not need to spend a decade in medical school to get there. There should be a field with a shorter medical education that is focused on prevention and optimal health. That person may then keep studying while working to become a doctor or even a researcher or continue their practice.
