Obviously you can blame whoever you want.

But I was asking what changes should be made to the health care system so that this sort of thing would never happen?

BTW, I'm pretty sure there is no current law requiring a hospital to perform an $250,000 operation on someone for free even if they are dying and the operation will save their life.
