but because of the outrageous cost

it gets put down frequently

yes but only organisation that seems interested in that is WHO

this is from Commnwealth Fund analysis

Vee made a 6 minute video walking to the shops, he was panting by the end of it

those studies are inherently flawed

Walking

like literally all of them

you cant just compare the health of an entire population to another for example

that was my point

and more importantly

lmao

so why are you trying

lol

where do all of the rich people go to ge their treatment?

the us

@svarozhyc i was saying that if you specifically define health systems by their ability to accomodate patients

the uk has one of the worst in europe

no other metric

define ability to accommodate patients 🙄 how do you tell

wait times

is a pretty good indication usually

but those arent necessarily accurate

the definite metric would be how many hospital beds are available

how many machines

etc.

In a study from 2003 of waiting times in OECD countries, Siciliani and Hurst concluded that “waiting times” is a serious health policy issue in 12 of the countries included in that study (Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom). Waiting times were not recorded administratively in a second group of countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Japan, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and the United States) but the authors wrote that they were anecdotally (informally) reported to be low [21]. Our study shows that eight years later, the same countries still record waiting times.

even with things like waiting times

there are a bunch of complex variables

France's lack of national monitoring is often cited as evidence that the country has no waiting time problems. However, the large regional differences in terms of services provided and number of doctors have led to inequities in access

for example

organ transplants are few and far between

so wait times are always outrageous assuming you ever get an organ at all

yes

likewise

you have to compare that to urgently needed surgeries and unnecessary or less needed surgeries that sill take up doctor time and hospital resources

so why are you looking for a variable that can't be determined again?

i said if you wanted to be more precise you could look at hospital staff, hospital beds, and machinery lol

if anyone was wondering what SFO looks like on minecraftr
