Numbers and facts about UK and USA health systems today:
UK spends less per head on healthcare but has a higher life expectancy than the US.
The World Health Organisation ranks Britain’s healthcare as 18th in the world, while the US is in 37th place.
The British Medical Association said a majority of Britain’s doctors have consistently supported public provision of healthcare.
A spokeswoman said the association’s 140,000 members were sceptical about the US approach to medicine: “Doctors and the public here are appalled that there are so many people on the US who don’t have proper access to healthcare. It’s something we would find very, very shocking.”
