Probably not, but when I see on my insurance statement they payed as little as 10 percent in some cases healthcare doesn't seem so unaffordable. Luckily I have healthy kids and the way the risk pool works in many ways I am paying for at least part of your list which is OK because what you listed are all afflictions where the victim clearly can't help themselves....
