Access to medicine is pretty terrible in Sweden for less critical issues. You have to pay for doctor's visits between $30-60 and often have to wait 4-8 weeks even with the fee. Almost everything requires a prescription compared to other countries, so the delays are problematic as there is no opportunity for self-medication at all. But there's definitely something to be said for the overall health of the population like obesity rates, smoking rates, etc.
