You don't understand the term apparently. Nothing new here.
Oh, I understand that you cannot answer the question...
Deaths from all causes does not equate with how well a nation's health system is run.
American healthcare workers receive more education than any others in the world (from what I see). Healthcare is expensive, but the quality and innovation is higher in America.
The question made no sense, since you don't understand the terminology. Use google. It will help you look not as bad as you usually do.
But it's rationed by income with the rich getting the lion's share resulting in bad PUBLIC health outcomes. And PUBLIC health is the criterion, not the fact that medical miracles are available to some billionaire.
That's our model and it's failed.
The question makes perfect sense in relation to what you posted. If you feel I misunderstood, explain your reasoning...
Any solid proof? From what I see those on Medicaid get the best care. The middle class or rich guy on their insurance plan will have to pay $50-$300 for an expensive medication while the Medicaid individual pays $0 and has no insurance premiums or bills. I know many in the middle class that refused care because of the cost.
Look up pay for service versus capitation or the european model (which isn't pay for service). Then report back in.

Hey Alabama Paul............
Just logged in and saw this.........
Don't you ever tire of embarrassing people with the facts?
Good evening Way. The trolls on this site are a bit more interesting (for the moment)...
Someone always ends up paying, which is the point. I'm sorry you're having difficulty with this concept...

Well, let's see?
So they are endless, but you can't provide links to them?
Yeah, reading your posts create a problem: cognitive dissonance as you make one couterfactual claim after the next. In public health metrics our system is failing. It's failing for known economic reasons. Your bizarrely unfactual posts simply won't change that, but they will prove you're a conserative.
Of those 17 countries . . . so in the world-rankings we're, what, like 17 out of 196 . . . maybe dropping into the 20's or so? I don't know - they only cherry picked 17 . . . and from the skewed view of slim and simplified statistics which don't cover the deeper aspects one would have to examine, no less.
But never mind some common sense, here - never mind that.

Failing for those too stupid to look out for themselves, I agree.
Advanced economies. Comparing us to Somalia is a bit unfair. But with the help of the GOP, we may reach Somalia status soon.
So - only those 17 countries are on par with us, economically?
It's a crap shot of a 'case' - and you know it . . . and is only seen in full light when you don't cherry pick who else you discuss - unless, of course you're not wanting to learn and instead you're wanting to jump to conclusions and make certain countries just look bad.
Last but not least - the Democratic party has had it's hand in so much over the last decades and look - we still have these 'numbers' to cherish, here . . . so that argument goes nowhere as well.
I accept your surrender and the fact that you are too incurious to look up the meaning of pay-for-service in the health care context.
How many co workers do you have setting up internet sites so links can be provided? Someone needs to grow up.:roll::roll:
