It's not shit, proper healthcare just costs more than most people are willing to spend.

If you wanted to make it cheaper, you would need more doctors. The real problem is that the process of becoming a doctor sucks, because it is a lot of time and effort. Therefore, if doctors made more, there would be more of them, and healthcare would become cheaper and more accessible. But people often take their health for granted and don't want to spend the money, so doctors' wages are lower than they could be, so, for many people it is not worth becoming a doctor. So you get fewer doctors and worse healthcare.
