Should be a measure of efficiency.
Say what's it cost to have a baby in each system, and how many of them survive to 1 year old.
That's pretty simplistic. How long does it take to get an appointment? Can you choose your own doctor? How many doctors are there to see? How many test machines are available in a given area?
The amount of time, the lost productivity, and the amount of pain and suffering endured by patients, in a que are never factored into the published "per country" costs.
Of course it's simplistic works...how much is spent, and what are the outcomes...you use it for schools, govt workers, every other thing that you set your mind to...how else do YOU measure efficiency ?
It's why I chose having a baby, the most natural thing that humans can do. 9 months to brew, waiting lists don't matter.
Who costs more to have this most natural of occurrences, and who is most likely to make it to their first birthday ?
