Not just universal health care but general lifestyle. But fast food, lack of amenities, and increasing reliance on cars will mean some Europeans turn into sedentary obese blobs and suffer the same health complications, if not expense, as their American counterparts.
We have fast food here, and in many places public transport is bad enough that you have to drive to not be fired for being late to work too many times.
It's just that with most healthcare concerns, we don't need to remortgage the house...
Mostly a UK problem though. Source: British living in EU
Also a problem in France. I have family in southern France, and there's plenty of American fast food restaurants around, all very popular.
