Sick Around the World

This is an excellent video documentary about various healthcare systems around the world.

It was produced by PBS to see if the US can learn anything from the rest of the world about how to run a healthcare system.

The revelation is that while there are peaks in excellence in various healthcare systems around the world, there is none that is excellent at the systems level that is truly sustainable in the long term.

Watch the video and reflect against Singapore's healthcare system - the 6th best in the world, according to WHO.
