Making
Sense of Health Care -
article
In the US, we pay more for our medical system per capita,
and more as a percent of the overall economy, than any
other developed country. Health expenditures,
which totalled $900 billion or 14.4 percent of GNP in
1993, are projected to reach as high as $1.7 trillion,
or 18 percent of GNP, by 2000. In comparison, Canada,
Germany, and Japan all spend less than 9 percent of GNP
on health care.
