Removing it from a competitive market will likely make it more expensive and prevent innovations which will keep it affordable.

What "competitive market"? The USA healthcare system is very clearly a conglomerate of monopolies at this point.

Under a government system extremely long wait times are the norm.

Unless you're literally dying, extremely long wait times are already the norm.

Yeah the US is a really poor example of a free market.. I don't think one exists for health care.
