Cuba has some of the worst healthcare in the world. Here is a lecture by Yuri Maltsev, an ex-soviet economic adviser, describing one of his many trips to Cuba with some of his students. I've linked it to the relevant part of his lecture, it lasts about 5 minutes.
I read another one of your comments and you state something completely different, namely that for the amount they spend healthcare they have low infant mortality, low maternal mortality and relatively high life expectancy. This say nothing about the quality of their healthcare which is what you seemed to be saying in the comment I'm replying to.
I live in Canada near it's capital city and when my friend got a severe concussion and his head was bleeding it took him 12 hours in the emergency room to get help, they thought my sister had an aneurysm and it took 6 months before she got testing and it took my ex-girlfriend 8 months to get tested for cancer. There is a saying we have here: "There are those Canadians who love socialized medicine and there are those who have used it."
