> In the context of healthcare, universal healthcare means by definition that its available to everyone.

The government doesn't literally pay for anything you want or need. It picks what things it will pay for and what things it won't. You can't always ask government to make a special exception in extenuating circumstances like you could with a parent or cousin.

I'm not saying family is always better. I'm saying there are certainly downsides to government-based charity.

You think Universal Healthcare is charity? Thanks for demonstrating the disconnect that many people have in the US and why lack of care about facts and information has us in the place we are right now.
