I'm thinking more along the lines of informal networks in which people find doctors by asking for recommendations among friends, colleagues, family, church groups, etc. The current system in which patients are basically randomly assigned to doctors (and online reviews are easily gamed by fraud/bots/paid reviewers) relies on the regulatory system to ensure that bad doctors and bad products get removed. (And, as we have seen with mRNA, the regulatory system can easily be captured by fraud on the largest scales.)
If we can return to a community structure in which people talk among themselves about what actually works and what doesn't, then the good doctors should be inundated with calls and the bad doctors should find themselves out of work.
