Citing a single instance does not a case make.
If your friend was in the U.S. the standard of care she would have received would have been at least equal and more than likely superior.
Healthcare is not free no matter how you label it.
Was what happened to your friend unfortunate? Yes, but that is life.
We have a form of universal healthcare in the U.S., it is called Medicare and the program is rife with corruption and inadequate care given for the expenditure.
I recently had to have shoulder surgery, was it expensive? Hell yes!, but it was my responsibility, not that of any other person.
