Life Insurance Company Rankings
Obama Health care plan, NHS?
I’ve been watching BBC news this morning and all the americans slating our NHS with misinformed facts is driving me nuts, do those ignorant americans actually understand the system, why are they listing to that dribble the insurance companies are feeding you? our healthcare ranks higher in WHO league tables, http://www.photius.com/rankings/healthranks.html, you spend 3 times as much as us per capita, yet our life expectancy is 2 years longer and we have an equal number of doctors and more nurses, midwives and hospital beds. I could go on.
sorry for the grammar errors, I was mad.
Regie: that is a fair point, but if using our NHS as an example means that people go without health care, then that’s what annoys me.
viva liberty: I’m afraid I have not been brain washed by liberals as I am an enormously skeptical individual , I am aware of the Michael Moore documentary, however I have never seen it.
Funny you used the WHO stats, because:
“Britain has the highest teenage pregnancy rate in western Europe, according to a worldwide report into sexual and reproductive health risks to women.
The authors of the report A Measure of Survival: Calculating Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Risk warned that teenagers, whose pregnancies were often unplanned, run a higher risk of complications in pregnancy and childbirth.
The report also found that while Britain was one of the safest countries for pregnancy and childbirth, it was still only 19th safest – behind countries including Croatia, Cuba and the Czech Republic.”
- As printed in the Telegraph
And that’s even with half of all teenage pregnancies ending in abortion.
And as to your WHO stats, factors used by WHO in ranking are:
“- overall level of population health
- health inequalities (or disparities) within the population;
- overall level of health system responsiveness (a combination of patient satisfaction and how well the system acts);
- distribution of responsiveness within the population (how well people of varying economic status find that they are served by the health system);
- distribution of the health system’s financial burden within the population (who pays the costs)”
Yeah, REAL objective. Especially since the last 2 give handicap points to socialized medicine. And “overall level of population health” is broad to point of idiocy. Conveniently, they haven’t done this study since the late 90s.
