I am fully insured in the United States. An appointment with my primary for something urgent is typically a week out, if I can't wait a week I am advised to go to an emergency room. An appointment with a specialist, if I can get one, is typically six months out. An average emergency room visit is typically a three hour wait to be triaged, additional multiple hours to talk to someone about my condition.
I live in Massachusetts. I would take a public system over what we have now, no questions asked.
