I felt this one was a pretty unbiased take
My biggest complaint is that while it's great at covering the scope of the problem, I think the last date it really covers is 1985. It could use an update.
I'd recommend Paul Starr's 'social transformation of american medicine'. This was a required textbook in the American health system history/overview portion of my grad school. I don't know if the most recent edition has been updated to include recent changes like the ACA, but I think this is widely considered (at least in academic circles) as an authoritative historical overview of how the American healthcare system came to be from hundreds of years ago to the 20th century. Hopefully the 21st century in the most recent version.
