What I see with healthcare is there is plenty of it to be provided, just not everybody has the means to be plenty of it. There is a group of people who fall in about the lower third who really have the hardest time of it all. They have just enough insurance to see a provider but not enough financial means to afford their coinsurance amounts. Thus they usually just are left out by not getting healthcare so as not to have the expense. Those in the lowest income brackets get some of the best healthcare at the medical school because it is free (even though the wait is long often). Then we have the primary care doctors such as the internal medicine doctors and pediatricians who are not getting reimbursed enough by anybody to stay in practice and are leaving the business left and right. The whole system is flawed but I am not sure a "Universal system" is the fix.
