According to WHO's Health Report 2008, Taijikistan has the most cost-effective health care in the world.
They achieve the same health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) as the US, but with less than $100 spent per capita, compared to above $2500 of the US.
"For what and for whom money is spent matters considerably. Particularly in countries where the envelope for health is very small, every dollar that is allocated sub-optimally seems to make a disproportionate difference."
