Title: It is insane how US healthcare is run, provided, funded and in/dis-incentivized!

Why is everything always corrupted by louts grifters and vermin?  America was Founded by folks who would cross an ice-laden river in the dead of night on Christmas Eve to slip into your encampment and slaughter you...

So sad to see things slip into such states and people just shrug, pisss and moan and throw their hands up in resignation...

Insurance is the culprit. When I see the charge, then the write off and what's accepted it baffles the mind

It's not just insurance...

Govt is the worst payer of all insurers, and what do they force people onto, yup more govt.  So, struggling Non-Profit providers get squeezed, all insurers determine what treatments are to a large extent and screw the patient and the providers get incentivized (like with "the jab") to peddle latest pharma miracle, drug costs here vs elsewhere is a joke (though I get why R&D costs require exclusivity on going to market to recoup investment) there is room there and in other things for some independent audit review so insurers and patients aren't getting screwed...then there's all the bureaucracy, largely government-driven that needs streamlining, there's a host of issues...
