- ThomPete 14y agoIf there isn't any other country that is more expensive how is that besides the point? Another way to interpret the different numbers could also be simply a question of availability.

- seanmcdirmid 14y agoThe medical system in China is severely underfunded while prices are fixed by the government that don't much these funding levels. Its kind of a mess. For private healthcare without bribes in China, the prices are way more expensive than the states...but what choice do we have? At least I have insurance. Anyways, my experience is only in China.
