The best Doctors already do not take insurance of any kind. They get paid in cash at the time of each visit and some require a retainer fee of X amount per year or per month. Health care is not about preventing people from making private deals with Doctors, it's about preventing Doctors from making private deals with insurance carriers, prescription drug companies, long term care facilities and many other private for-profit business who are interested in earning more money - even if it means providing you with less care.
I am assuming when you say health care you mean insurance? I guarantee you under a government plan you will see a lot less health care.

Get the government and insurance companies out of the way and health care would become much more affordable.
