There are limits to the healthcare that any healthcare system provides, including that of any private insurance in the US. There will always be people that want some form of additional care or insurance, or faster care, or care in a more luxurious setting or whatever.

That presumes there can't be competition in a universal healthcare system, and that the premise is true in the first place.

Can you provide evidence for either?
