As China moves aggressively into capitalism, they also adopt the worst practices of the U.S. for-profit system making a mockery of what's left of their socialist state.
Americans shouldn't be too smug as their healthcare and insurance companies charge extraordinary fees as well. Also at 1:58 thats a shot of a hospital in Hong Kong. There is a huge difference in terms of quality. Stupid CNN and their bullshit.
I went to China 2 years ago and the hospitals were very unclean and things looked chaotic but affordability was so dirt cheap that it made the United States look like we were paying far too much and getting less. No system is fair or perfect.
Good Job from CNN, this is quite genuine although not without prejudice (I'll call it cultural barrier), American should know more about the rest of the world. Another program from PBS called "Sick around the world" also look at the health care system around the world.And truly, I' bewildered by Obama's plan for universal health care, what are the plan? Medial pay attention to the debate, the protest but not much on that the plan really is.
I agree with Lou Dobbs: interesting, but inconclusive. The life expectancy statistic is weak evidence they are getting good health care, but are just being extorted. I imagine that, being acclimated to communism, they go along with what doctors say and then afterward are sent an outrageous bill, hence the disatisfaction.
Chinese attacking doctors doesnt surprise me. They eat eachother alive in china.

They are opening all kinds of KFC/McDonalds-China is getting more obese because of it so will increase heart attacks and strokes.
