That's because the American system is just, if not more so, *communist*
than yours. (It goes without saying that US tort litigation keeps
doctors out of their profession in droves.)

These days, to get decent, affordable health-care, you schedule a
vacation in a still nominally free-market country in southeast Asia, buy
it yourself, pay for the vacation with the differential, and still come
out ahead.
