The healthcare industry, especially in the US, isn't interested in finding cures for disease. It's interested in maximizing profits, which is a goal that the bureaucracy serves.

The healthcare industry in the US in made up a huge range of individual and organizations, they don’t all have the same motives.

Suggesting otherwise is projecting your own fears not representative of reality.

Regardless of their motives they're all subject to the same regulatory system so they can only stray so far for so long from the net effect of the incentives and remain not bankrupt and being auctioned to pay back creditors.
