But if they can't pay, society will have to. Granted, I guess this isn't technically paying for everyone else's healthcare.


You can contribute voluntarily to charities to help people pay medical debt, to charities that provide free medical assistance or there could be free/less expensive medical treatment given by universities as training to medical students

A priori, you don't know if someone won't be able to pay for treatment, so there's no reason someone should be left to die

The important part is that things should be voluntary and not forced


And if charities/universities are unwilling or unable to give all of the emergency medicine needed?


The same thing that happens when hospitals are unable to give care today in any country
