It increases the likelihood that the one specific factor of how the health care insurance is structured is not a dominant one.

And it doesn't really increase (or decrease) the likelihood that the factors cancel each other out.

Whereas not having universal coverage is unique to the US in the sample, and as you admit effects longevity for those not covered.

I indirectly admitted not having any access to health care effects longevity in a negative way (by saying health care affects longevity in a positive way, which is in effect saying the same thing or nearly the same thing).

Not having a system of universal insurance coverage is not the same as not having any access to health care.

Everyone in the US has some access to health care. Many who are officially uninsured have pretty decent access to health care.
