Can you point to any place in the world with more advanced medical techniques, procedures, or technology?
Actually, we may have the best medical offerings, but they're ONLY available to those few who can afford such offerings.....PLUS, the US "steals" the best doctors from other countries with the lure of making tons of money with our run-away health care costs.
Ultimately, if we did have the best health care system delivery, the life expectancy in the US should be much higher than 34th in the world.
According to the chart below, the United States ranks 18th in terms of life expectancy. The 34th ranking you refer to is a bogus statistic published by the WHO that ranks healthcare systems largely by irrelevant criteria like how socialist they are.
