    And some people in my (developing) country think healthcare is better over there.

      Where we really excel is in the variety of treatment. You need some brand new cancer treatment? In the US you can likely get it if you can pay. Fancy tests like running a genome check to see if you’ll respond to a medication? We’ve got that. In general we’ve got the high end expensive parts of healthcare available at a high price.

      Other than that the only thing we’ve really got going for us is extremely fast turnaround for trans healthcare by global standards.
