That's not true, is it? You could decline coverage and then go purchase a policy of your own elsewhere. Yes, that might be expensive but the original claim was "Y'all actually have one of the best systems in the world, it's just way too expensive." and that still tracks.
Even better, you could purchase a policy through the Obamacare exchanges.
If the government offers you bad medical care, you turn to the black market or you fly to the US to get the procedure done because the government has banned alternative care. This is a very normal Conservative talking point and the inherent competition in US healthcare is arguably the biggest benefit of its current system.

What other choices exist, there's only a few giant insurers anyway. > Even better, you could purchase a policy through the Obamacare exchanges. I have no direct experience, would love to be wrong, but what I've heard is that even the top-tier plans are extremely limited in what they cover and where they are accepted so it's even worse than company-provided plans.
