The U.S. Ranks 26th for Life Expectancy, Right Behind Slovenia
Ezra Klein in The Washington Post; subscription may be required
Nov. 21, 2013
"[T]he United States' average lifespan has fallen one year behind the international average, lower than Canada and Germany, more akin to the Czech Republic and Poland.... [A new OECD report] shows the United States as a country that is spending tons and tons on health care--but getting way less than other countries out of that investment. It exposes a country that's really great at buying fancy medical technologies, but not so fantastic at using those medical technologies to extend life. It is, in short, the story of why our health care system is so screwed up."
