The US health system seems to suffer a bit from not trying to do what's best for the patients so you have a huge insurance bureaucracy that bankrupts people and shorter life expectancies that most developed countries. I'm not surprised people are not very trusting of it. |

It is a fallacy that US health systems cause that. Lifestyle preventatives are far more important than acute healthcare. Exercise, food, and accidental deaths matter.
The main exception in other countries is that a high average lifetime is highly dependent on babies and young children surviving.
Good healthcare helps lifetimes, but other factors dominate early deaths.
