ABSTRACT

Good question. ‚ere are, it turns out, lots of reasons to think this is true. ‚e ©rst is the experience of other countries.

Looking at Normal Countries Look at other countries with major, advanced healthcare systems and this is what you see: whether you measure it by percentage of the economy (GDP) or in dollars per person devoted to healthcare, a few countries spend about two-thirds of what the United States does; the rest spend half or less.
