Foreign advice for USA healthcare sought.?

in-laws' Canadian father needed operation for heart [balloon angioplasty & stent]. He was put off three times at last moment [literally middle of the night before] because of "higher priority" need for the OR at 6am. One of those times, he found out when he showed up to be prepped at 5am. Rescheduling, each time, was for eight to ten weeks out -- OR was booked solid that far in advance. Btw, he lives three hours by car from the surgery centre and had to stay overnight the night before at own expense.

if he had died for lack of this surgery, the listed cause would be "heart attack", not "medical malpractice".

Next case -- my own 83 yo father's wet macular degeneration in one eye would not have been treated at all under Britain's NHS. WMD isn't treated there in elders until it affects both eyes, and then only the "better one" is treated. Dad was near 90 when he finally died of something else so would have had to endure not seeing well for over six years. This is routine treatment in America for elders -- hundreds of cases per month even in relatively small cities. Your Medicare at work.

This is the only 1st world nation without single payer healthcare, and no nation has EVER switched from single payer to any other system. It works.

I live in Ontario Canada and we have single payer. My daughter suffered a brain aneurysm and received surgery the very next day, when swelling in the brain was under control. She spent three weeks in hospital and received excellent care. She now gets regular check ups. No health insurance was needed and there were no hospital bills to pay. I feel very fortunate to live in a country with single payer healthcare, and I don't mind my taxes helping other citizens that may be in the same position.

Obamacare is not going anywhere. It will need modification. This is a process. Republicans were talking out of their *** to get re-elected. They knew Obamacare was here to stay

The ACA needs to be amended. The republican who choose to repeal it are blatantly doing the work of their lobbyist who happen to be the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical companies
