My point was that as usual, the truth is somewhere between the extreams of Obama’s promises of universal great health care (for free to the average american to boot!), and the predictions of doom for all.[/quote]
I totally agree with this. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Although your example is similar, the time frame is quite different. In order for cancer to spread throughout your body, it would take at least a few months. While, sepsis, seems to have a fairly quick spread rate. I agree though, that malpractice happens everywhere. As I said in my previous post, different hospital have different level of care. Kaiser vs Scripps/Sharp for example is huge difference.
The question is, does other countries have the same law suit friendly environment as they do there? That alone would increase health care cost considerably.
