An interactive comparison of healthcare spending and life expectancy across countries, highlighting the U.S. position over time.
More money should mean better healthcare… right?
This analysis uses decades of OECD data to compare what countries spend against what they achieve, measured across consistent metrics.
One country spends significantly more than all others, but the outcomes do not match that level of investment. Other countries spend far less and perform comparably or better.
The data points to real differences in how healthcare systems operate, and where money goes does not always align with where results show up.
Think you could guess which country spends the most, and how its outcomes compare?
Vizzu lets you move through time, across countries, and between metrics in one continuous view. Relationships between spending and outcomes become visible as the data shifts, and outliers stand out clearly once you start exploring.
