The way to break a monopoly is to provide another means.  For healthcare, 
that means alternatives to company sponsored health plans, clinics, 
hospitals, doctors and nurses.

The answer is to decline a health plan altogether and go with the underground 
medical care (as opposed to the UMC).  Foreign witch doctors and midwives, 
drug dealers dealing medical drugs instead of pleasure drugs, weird 
underground "clubs" with hidden curtains, passwords, bodyguards that actually 
dispense health care, and an active network of patients on the web that 
grants you access.  Perhaps another establishment could be a front for the 
business.  I suggest the church as a natural front.  Whatever's a cliche in 
the seedy underground is fine.  The way to avoid quacks is to network with 
each other, perhaps even real doctors will help.  The police shouldn't bother 
if they go there too.
