That's an interesting point and I completely agree, but wouldn't America's already real lack of "supply" buffer this a bit? I have to wait several weeks to get into my personal family doctor, and it took over 4 hours to be admitted during our last visit to the ER (we went in because of a suspected ectopic pregnancy, which it turned out to be).
Edit: Basically, I think a lot of people will still be left without adequate health care in minor cases, but at least the most urgent cases will be taken care of without leaving people bankrupt.
It seems like the physician shortage will only continue to worsen. https://www.aamc.org/news-insights/press-releases/new-findin...
