Here is what will happen.
Under true emergency care most people do not have choice, they go to the closest available location. Those locations will be overloaded.
People who have some time (they would calculate it based on the expected wait time at the closest hospital, compared to the one of choice) and money (of course the mo'money, the mo'choice - including off-shore locations), they will charter med-jets, med-copters, or other forms of transportation that poor people typically can not afford or won't be covered. These new private medical facilities will be located in remote resort type locations far, far away from average working people. These new facilities will be privately run, for profit - business plans are being drawn up as we exchange information here.
