And this is why I get all bunchy whenever some congresscritter trots out the phrase "the best health care system in the world". With sufficient money and knowing where to go and who to talk to, you can indeed get some of the best care here in the US. But that ignores the fact that the methods of payment (and the focus on treatment rather than maintenance/prevention, which are also part of the system) are completely screwed up.
