According to Wikipedia it seems that Brazil has universal free health care http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_in_Brazil

Yes, but it's generally crap and everyone who can afford private insurance (or just paying list prices at private clinics), does.

<-- works with many Brazilians and spends about a month of each year there.

Worse than that — it is universal in theory but not in practice, as often there will be no doctors around in the State‐run health system, and not enough medicine and other medical supply.
