Thanks for all the advice

I don't see the difference between getting medicare by paying the monthly premium & getting any other medical insurance, is it just that it's state(country)-owned?
I have enough unearned income so won't be in a position of having insufficient funds & wouldn't want to qualify on that basis anyway, but is there an advantage to being with the medicare scheme rather than another provider?
Sorry still confused
