I get that no system is perfect, but there is quite a bit of opportunity to assist poor people, especially if competition has resulted in much lower prices. The poor people won't need as much financial assistance to get care if the prices are lower, and your average person who does make decent income will have more money left over to donate to poor people if they aren't paying as much for healthcare.

Empirically speaking, for every $1 of public assistance you offer in medical care, you crowd out 1 cent of private charity.

Can you explain what you mean by this? Also, are you talking in terms of how our current system works? Just wanting some clarification.
