Why-Not-the-Best--Results-from-the-National-Scorecard-on-U-S--Health-System-Performance--2008

As always, I'm sure we can pick apart the methodology, but....can all

the charts be wrong and the US is actually the BEST healthcare in the

world?

Probably not.

Time after time, the US doesn't seem to be up to snuff on the best
