Devon Greyson: Countries similar to the US but with universal medical care (such as Australia & Canada) commonly call this universal medical care “medicare.”

Your periodic reminder that Medicare For All would save $450 billion in health care costs and 68,000 lives per year.

Better than the current system, I agree. BUT. Not the same as universal health care. Still dealing with paying premiums, copays, coinsurance, gaps in coverage with Medicare. The only advantage to Medicare for All over universal health care is keeping insurance companies in business.
