No true Scotsman?
How about changing the measure of “no amount of money” because there will always be some amount of money sufficient to get you the healthcare you need — in some cases that will mean flying you out to a different country, in others it means flying a medical team and equipment to you.
When a simple drug like insulin costs $1000/vial versus the $10 everywhere else, and simply setting a broken leg can set you back $30k where everywhere else that procedure costs $300, it’s clear that there are certain levels of “having money” that are insufficient to afford health care. There’s a huge problem of accessibility hidden behind employer provided health insurance.
