Israel has universal health care. Why would it be so bad for the US?

I used to be onboard with the free market health care rhetoric. But too many bad experiences with insurance companies have made me less ideological

For starters, Israel has a smaller, homogeneous (through religions,) demographic. It does not have open borders with thousands of new health care clients pouring into its country daily. Israel has a geography much more condensed than the U.S., resulting in more health care facilities per capita than the U.S. Lastly, and totally beyond my desire to research, I suspect that very serious health concerns of wealthy Israeli patients are addressed in the U.S.
