Per se is doing a lot of work there. Sure, if the rich person and the poor person chose the same insurance company and the company doesn’t deny coverage to the poor person (it doesn’t matter for the rich one, since they can afford it) they could get the same coverage if they have equal quality hospitals nearby and the rich person is happy to be treated by their nearest in network hospital
But poor areas have worse hospitals
And when the rich one is president of the united states that one also has a staff medical team, and access to military medical units, and a plane and helicopter on hand to move him
Just regular rich have access to faster transport to better hospitals than the 99% can have
But yeah, on paper, ignoring effects from socio economic status and where the 99% live versus where the 1% live, versus where the .001% live it’s all equal
