National Health Care works fine in ALL other countries, but the US is again the outlier, just like about gun safety. Historically, the US dependence on INSURANCE companies began way back in a Roosevelt Administration that put on wage and salary CONTROLS. To circumvent the requirements and to recruit the best employees, Corporations would entice new employees with company-paid benefits. It was a great CASE of UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES.
.........And thus began the INSURANCE COMPANIES stranglehold on US healthcare! Which we pay dearly for today.
