Medicare for all would do effectively the same thing.
I look at the EOBs (Explanation of Benefits) every time, and file them away. I notice how little my supplemental insurance pays, and wonder why I'm paying for it. One of these days I intend to look into it, so I need to find a group where they do that - but it will be very hard for me to make a change. My insurance wouldn't let me back on if I quit, then when I got back to the states there was a slight concession and you could try medicare Advantage for a year, and were allowed back in if you changed your mind. Suspicious. 🧐
The explanations as to why single payer won't work all seem to be - "We're too far along, you can;t get there from here." We already partner wiht big pharma and they make profits off of us, why can't we profit and use those profits for single payer?
We need to figure out how to get rural people to good health care. Allow vets to treat humans in remote areas?
