Studies Show US Spending Doesn’t Get Best Health

The United States many spend twice as much on health care as other rich countries1, but it is not getting results to match2 according to studies released on Tuesday.

But in the study of five wealthy countries, published in the journal Health Affairs, researchers found no single nation had clearly the worst or best health care system.

Gerard Anderson at Johns Hopkins University’s school of public health and colleagues came up with3 a list of 21 health fields they could evenly compare across the five countries —Australia, Canada, Britain, New Zealand and the United States.

"None of the five countries is consistently the best or the worst on all 21 indicators." Anderson said during a telephone briefing for reporters.

"If you are looking for the place to get the best care, there isn’t a single place. Every country has at least one indicator where it scores the best of the five countries and each country has at least one indicator where it scores the worst of the five countries. "

But, he said, the United States is not getting value for money. "The United States should be particularly concerned about these results, given that we spend twice as much on health care as any other country. So spending more doesn’t necessarily result in4 "better outcomes."

Anderson’s group of international health experts sponsored by the Commonwealth Fund spent five years working on the study, getting the latest possible data from the five countries on areas such as breast cancer and leukemia survival, suicide rates, death rates from asthma, vaccination rates and cancer screening.

答案與解析

1.A文章第一、六兩段分別提到,美國在衛(wèi)生保健方面的開支是其他富裕國家的兩倍。

2.B文章第二、五兩段分別提到,在這五個國家中,沒有一個國家能提供最好的衛(wèi)生保健服務。

3.C文章只說美國在衛(wèi)生保健方面的開支是其他富裕國家的兩倍,但并沒有提及其衛(wèi)生保健方面的開支是否在逐年遞增。

4.B文章第六段明確說明,并非衛(wèi)生保健方面的開支越大,所提供的衛(wèi)生保健服務就一定越好。

5.A從文章的第二、七兩段可以得知,該項研究涉及五個國家,歷時五年。

6.B文章只說美國在衛(wèi)生保健方面的開支是其他富裕國家的兩倍,而所提供的衛(wèi)生保健服務卻并非明顯優(yōu)于其他富裕國家。但并不能因此推斷說其他富裕國家的衛(wèi)生保健服務就優(yōu)于美國。

7.C文章第六段提到,美國應該特別關注此項研究的結果,但并沒有表明美國已經(jīng)下決心改善其衛(wèi)生保健系統(tǒng)。
