The constitution seems to me to be focused primarily on sovereignty. While important, the aims of it were narrow.

Public healthcare is a simple premise: an insurance pool that projects total costs and charges only that much to its participants. While not expressly sanctioned by the constitution, there is no language that forbids the mechanisms that require it to work, either.
