The US has the best medical system in the world. Most Americans have access to it. The poor could have access and an obvious improvement made in life in the US. Government simply needs to realize that life is more than health care. Take care of all the needs of the poor. Instead of a multitude of welfare programs including Medicare and Medicaid, establish a Guaranteed Annual Income for the poor. No more Government housing. The poor with their GAI  would get housing on the market. No housing for cities and counties to take care of. Huge savings  there and quality of housing much improved. No bus passes or food coupons. 

Cash, the Guaranteed Annual Income, so the poor could live more like the rest of Americans. 

I would suspect with all the welfare programs and gov't housing programs disbanded there would be more than enough money for the Guaranteed Annual Income. If not, so be it, the US is a wealthy country.

The US with the best health care system and best living conditions.
