Highly unlikely. There will be plenty of high quality offshore clinics with US doctors if 0bamacare goes through and becomes unchallenged law. You could probably even purchase an insurance policy let’s say in the Caymans or Costa Rica for offshore medical services. With 0bamacare, offshore services will continue to improve (and US health care deteriorates) as US doctors emigrate offshore and reputable hospitals and clinics emerge. If you wanted rapid access in the US for medical treatment out of pocket you probably could find a doctor to treat you (for basic services) as long as you used an alias (you could state that you are not a US citizen for example) and paid cash.
The free market will eventually prevail.

My brother was treated in Belize and was pleased with the medical care.

He lives there on and off during the year.

Yes, I see a massive and lucrative off-shore practice of medicine.

I see some of our best physicians, including specialists, departing the U.S. for practices in these locations.

It's funny. Communists never foresee the dictates of government causing the victims to pack up and leave on the next thing smokin'.

The Soviets had such a great thing going they had to build walls and stretch razor wire to try and keep people from getting the hell out of Dodge City.
