What OP is suggesting is that it doesn’t financially ruin you in Sweden, you just die waiting to see a doctor.

The problem (which I think is what OP were talking about) is anything that’s not critical but still need to be looked at by a specialist. In that case long waiting times are not uncommon. Yes it’s a big problem but it’s not a problem that will kill you.
Do cancer survival rates differ in countries with government health care vs. private?

If people were dying left and right from waiting for cancer treatment. There would be a ton of news about that. No less in American media showing how bad European health care is.
