There are examples of using open source software for healthcare, for
example:
https://worldvista.org/AboutVistA/copy_of_index_html
https://www.gnuhealth.org/
Most of these are used at a hospital level. Lebanon does make extensive
use of WorldVistA. The US Military Veterans no longer use WorldVistA. A
well structured open source model would lead to accountability and
enable auditing. In the US healthcare regulation has been subject to
significant political lobbying.
Comparisons with other countries that are trying to provide universal
health coverage like India, or countries that have well functioning
universal health coverage systems particularly those in the low to
middle income GDP bracket, would be helpful.
