I think it's hard to compare the two health systems purely on their data as there is a culture of healthcare that it is difficult to factor in.
E.g. how many people don't go to hospital and then die in the US because they cannot afford healthcare? I witnessed this first hand in New York when somebody was knocked out and as I was dialling 911 they woke up and shouted not to call an ambulance because they couldn't afford the cost.
Equally, understand that the NHS does not have the funding that the US healthcare system and that wait times are generally longer.
etc etc...
