Europe is a big place. Which part of Europe are you referring to? There's a huge variance in cost and quality of care between, let's say, Copenhagen and Chișinău.

And even if we look only at the wealthier EU member states, "better" depends on which metric you look at. They're generally more cost effective. But the US is better for 5-year survival rates on most types of cancer.

Reading comprehension might not be your strong suit. The parent was arguing about the effectiveness of governments.

I wholeheartedly agree healthcare in Europe is better, but not everything is better there.
