I get the impression that Healthcare in the US works very well for those who have good insurance, plenty of money, or both. For those who don't it can be very difficult. Healthcare is fairer here, but the quality is variable and waiting times are often too long. Access to new treatments (eg. for cancer) is sometimes poor.
The Brits are quite medication phobic, but the doctors still prescribe a lot. Most of it ends up in the bin.
