Casualty insurance is underwritten by pooling risks and negotiating a precontracted mitigation price for healthcare services.
Private healthcare is a premium paid for services, an assignment of risk that most employers/people pay through the nose for, to private health insurance corporations, to assign high financial risk to the third-party payor -- Big Insurance Corporation.
I have no problem with you being relieved of the cost of buying insurance.
But I do think you should be denied service if you cannot pay cash in advance and left to die on the street.
That is how a free-market health system *should* work -- Is that really what you want?
Next time you go to a hospital ER room bring a credit card with thousands available -- or duct-tape the damage at home and take some aspirin.
You can only have your cake and eat it too in Unicornland ...
