What good is getting a diagnosis if you can't pay for the treatment. I'm stuck in this position right now. American health insurance is nothing but a glorified discount plan/coupon book scam.

And getting a diagnosis can be an absolute shitshow all by itself. God help you if you need a "specialist."

Americans have a lower life expectancy than people in other rich countries despite paying much more for healthcare. What factors may explain this?

Hmm streets with c and ends with ism.

Communism. God they've been doing this since the 50s. Even though they don't actually seem to be doing anything. Strange.
