Actually, there is, it's called medicaid.
What? You make too much to be eligible for medicaid? That tells us that you don't need the safety net that it provides.
And, even without medicaid, it's possible to get free health care for fundamentals in the US. No, "free" doesn't cover everything, but no healthcare system does.
