- derefr 5y agoNo, with the American health system, you do get what you pay for (i.e. more money ⇒ access to better medicine); but you don’t necessarily pay (the right amount) for what you get (i.e. !(worse medicine ⇒ costs less)). Which is to say: standard-of-care treatments can cost far too much relative to other countries; but also, if you’re willing to throw millions of dollars at private clinics, you can opt your own way into experimental treatments that don’t exist anywhere else in the world.
