The 10% of Americans who don't. The other Americans who do but still can't afford to pay what their health care doesn't cover, etc. Even with sufficient health

Even with sufficient health care, I try to avoid the doctor because of the cost.

If that is generally true then that is one really big difference between the US and northern Europe and Scandinavia. I never think of money when I or any of my family visit a doctor or hospital. Here in Norway I have to pay about USD30 to visit my GP, various fees for medical tests and so on, and I have to pay something towards any prescriptions but there is a cap on how much I will have to pay each year (about USD150 for drugs). Beyond that limit it is all free (except that of course it is paid for out of general taxation).
