Number 3 can’t be overstated. Healthcare costs for the exact same care are 2x-3x what they are in Europe.

Global health insurance plans usually come in two flavors:

1. Global coverage

2. Global coverage excluding United States (for half the monthly premium of the first plan)

The United States in an extreme outlier in terms of cost. This is separate from rationing care. This is separate from even population health (ex. higher obesity rates)
