The US has the most bureaucratic health care system in the
world. More than 31 percent of every dollar spent on health care
in the US pays for paperwork, overhead, and other non
direct-health related expenses.
The US spends 17.6
percent of its GDP on healthcare. The Netherlands is the next
highest, at 12 percent of GDP. Ten percent of Canada’s GDP is
spent on health care. The average among OECD countries was
almost half that of the US, at 9.5 percent of GDP.
