Can I apply to postgrad medicine in the USA w an undergrad UK biomedical/biochem degr

I've researched that you are only able to do medicine in the USA if you do a pre-med course beforehand. instead of taking this pre-med in the US, I was wondering if undergrad degrees in the UK for medical sciences/biochem/bio or chemistry suitable to study postgrad medicine in the USA, are those degrees going to be recognised so I wouldn't t have to do pre-med in the USA or do I have to do pre-med then medicine in the USA from the start.
I was also wondering if medicine degrees completed in the USA are recognisable in the UK and if I would be able to work in the uk if I obtained my degree in the states? Also wondering if this applies vice-versa, if I can work in the states with a medicine degree completed in the UK?

Do you have the right to live in the us? If not a US permanent resident (so able to get loans) can you afford the medical school fees?

Better to ask on a us premed forum but in general undergrad pre req courses need to be from a US or Canadian institute. Also worth noting that degrees in the U.K. wouldn’t cover all the required courses in any case.
