U.S. Health Care Study

A Commonwealth Fund study finds that U.S. health care system is the most expensive in the world and is the least effective compared to five other countries. The report found that Britain had the best system in "quality care, access, efficiency, equity and healthy lives" and that it spends less per person than the U.S. or Canada.

The report is available online http://www.commonwealthfund.org/publications/publications_show.htm?doc_id=482678
