Alternatively you set up the programs to never incentivize people for being poor.  Instead of cutting benefits completely, you wean them off and ensure that getting a job is always more beneficial.

There will always be a class of people who work jobs that don't offer ESI and don't pay enough for the employees to buy healthcare in the market.

The first world standard of care is simply cost prohitive to many working people.

We're either going to take care of these people, or we're not. No one wants to take the politically suicidal stance that we should refuse poor people treatement, but a certain contingent wants to cut coverage so that we can manufacture misery and medical bankrupticies.
