USA's Health Care Headache
October 15, 2002
"Parents need all
the help they can get. The strongest as well as the most fragile family requires
a vital network of social supports."
—Bernice Weissbourd
USA'S HEALTH CARE HEADACHE
According to "The World
in 2002" published by the Economist, only 15% of Americans say they have
a great deal of confidence in their health-management organizations. No wonder
when you compare the availability of care in various Western nations. The Economist
reported the following number of hospital beds per 1,000 people:
Japan = 16.5
Norway = 14.2
Netherlands = 11.3
Hungary = 8.1
United Kingdom = 4.0
United States = 3.4
