Cost is not the only comparison. The US scores last in this study of eleven countries. Sweden third. Having received healthcare in the US, the U.K. and Sweden, I personally prefer Sweden. But as the US is a very large place it is hard to generalise.

The UK spends a tiny amount on health care - $1400 a year less per head than comparative european countries like Germany, France, Belgium etc, and $5,400 a year less per head than the USA. Yet it has better healthcare than the USA.
