A routine office visit in costs U.S. patients an average of $95 -- two and a half times more than in Chile, which had the second-highest cost for routine office visits.... The price for every service evaluated in the report costs more in the United States than anywhere else in the world. The only exception was for cataract surgery, which costs patients $922 in the United States, $1,311 in Australia and $1,048 in Chile."
