I think you've just described US health care with the exception of the 60 million that are without any!
The answer is that Americans should be able to buy their own health insurance. The way to do this is to reduce taxes by lowering all the social & corporate welfare, no more foreign aid, and stop other wasteful spending of the taxpayers' money.

New York State has heath insurance available for everyone, based on income. Years ago, there were periods when I was uninsured and couldn't afford it. This would have helped me, but I don't think they had it yet.

Health insurance is very expensive, but if I needed it, I'd buy it myself.
