So?
They have choice and no Swedes go without care

neither do Americans
google: "medicare", then google "medicaid" , and then google: "EMTALA"

Not everyone is covered by those programs.

ALL Americans over 65 and ALL disabled Americans are eligible for
medicare, AliASS, where government pays the provider for healthcare
services direct.
Medicard is available to all of the poor under certain income levels,
AliASS. Some just don't bother to apply because they know they won't
be deprived the care EMTALA (below) provides.
EMTALA covers EVERYONE walking though the doors of medical facilities
including illlegal aliens where medical care cannot be denied
regardless of ability to pay in accordance with federal law, AliASS.
