One is that they would disallow supplemental policies and all, not just some, of us are underinsured. The other is that they do allow supplemental policies and we still have all those insurance companies with their associated overhead and you've lost the benefit you've assumed.

The way I envision gold plated supplemental policies that they would allow things like private rooms in hospitals, flying off to the Cleveland Clinic if you get cancer (instead of going to a local provider), stuff like that. Much like Aflac does right now, only deeper.

You seem to think the basic "tier" would be very spartan... I don't see why it would be much different than your current average health insurance policy.
