Z, > Why do they benefit the most?

Demand for services will increase and the quality will decline. The increased demand will benefit service workers, both in the hospitals and outside of them, as they will be in higher demand. (They won't benefit doctors, though, as they are already in high demand and overworked.)

The decline in quality means trial lawyers will have a bonanza of malpractice lawsuits to file. With all of the additional laws being passed, doctors and health care workers are bound to fracture a few of those laws. When something goes wrong, the ambulance chasers will be right there taking the case to court.

Of course, those who think universal health care will be a panacea believe that quality of health care doesn't necessarily have to decline. But I really doubt the malpractice attorneys are worried about that future.
