Harry S. Truman was the first U.S. president to formally propose a comprehensive, national universal health insurance plan
In 1945 he proposed a single, federally run system for all Americans.
While Truman is the most prominent historical advocate, Presidents Richard Nixon and Theodore Roosevelt also supported different forms of universal healthcare coverage. 

69 years ago, a president pitches his idea for national health care
Back in 1945 -- a mere seven months into a presidency he inherited from Franklin D. Roosevelt -- Truman proposed a “universal” national health insurance program. In his remarks to Congress, he declared, “Millions of our citizens do not now have a full measure of opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health. Millions do not now have protection or security against the economic effects of sickness. The time has arrived for action to help them attain that opportunity and that protection.”
