"That act only set federal standards across the country."

What are you talking about? The only act I mentioned was the one in 1984.

There was the Hospital Insurance and Diagnostic Services Act of 1957 that covered hospital care and universal coverage. Over the following years, more and more was covered under the plan until by 1972 all medical care was covered.
