The problem is that the shortage of qualified nurses and doctors is still going to be there.
What I expect is that the role of nurse practitioner would become a lot more inflated if universal healthcare would become a thing for routine check ups and general practitioners. You may not see a doctor for your physical any more.
Beyond that, a lot more roles would likely be opened up to cheaper staff as a way to relieve more qualified staff for specific tasks.
