Yeah but you might have to wait on a list to get care while we get to instantly know we can't get care

Unless you have like the best insurance that money can buy, we still have wait times in the US.

Coworker here in US had some strange neurological issues(vertigo among other stuff) and has had to wait months between visits to see a specialist. He's had to WFH several times because driving is dangerous. Of course along with the waits he also is spending thousands on the visit, iirc he almost hit his ~$6000 out of pocket max this year.
