Usually, things handled by governments suck in orthogonal ways to private companies. Private companies suck due to greed. State owned stuff sucks due to incompetence.
Where I live, we have a state owned insurance company, but others are allowed to compete with it. Optimistically, they competing with each other making all of them better. Pessimistically, you choose the one that sucks least from your point of view. Either way, better than any proposed alternative.
I agree with you, but I see it as governments should make the rules, based off what science tells them is best, companies themln implement those rules.
The US government needs to add a shit tonne of rules for companies to stop the unchecked growth and abuse and if it would do that, life would get better for everyone.
Unfortunately we now have trump so if you live in the US then you have my sympathies. Or actually, you don’t. You failed and got trump tonshit over the entire world, so you don’t have my sympathies. You should have stopped him
Again, I explicitly stated I live in a country where we have a government run insurance company in addition to private ones. People can register with whichever they like and send to paperwork to their employer, who pays their insurance (or government if unemployed).
Of course, what they have to cover at minimum is also heavily regulated.
As for other types of companies and rules, that is a long and nuanced discussion that is off-topic here.

Right. Because healthcare in other countries like Canada, the UK, and European countries are so terribly run compared to US healthcare.

So you are afraid of it being too good? Sure, most countries are better than the US…
I am literally explaining how it works in some European countries.
