In this report from Paris, The Rag Blog’s David Hamilton contrasts the French and U.S. healthcare systems and it turns out there’s simply no contest. The World Health Organization has France at number one, and the U.S. lags at 37th. On the other hand, our health care is the most expensive and we’re way up there in number of uninsured. David tells us how the French system works and why it’s so successful.
