Every few years, the think tank the Commonwealth Fund does a major analysis comparing the U.S.
to other countries like Canada, Australia, Japan, and Mexico.
Minera Gunja, the lead author of the latest report, says the U.S.
stands out in many negative ways.
Americans spend more on health care, avoid care because of costs, and have more preventable deaths.
The U.S.
is also an outlier on universal health coverage.
In the U.S., we're kind of going backwards.
We have bills now in place that are going to take health insurance away from millions of Americans.
She mentions major funding cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act marketplaces.
Another point in the report, the U.S.
has fewer primary care doctors and medical school graduates than peer countries.
