That is a good question. Perhaps we should look at statistics regarding health and mortality.

The World Health Organisation used to rank annually the health care systems around the world. The ranking list is published in their website. But the latest one was 2001 and they decided to stop it.

According to this 2001 ranking, I think France came up top. Singapore is 6th. (I'm from Singapore).

The top 10 in the order determined by the World Health Organization

1. France
2. Italy
3. San Marino
4. Andorra
5. Malta
6. Singapore
7. Spain
8. Oman
9. Austria
10. Japan

The WHO has indicated it will no longer produce a ranking table because of the complexity of the task. The criteria for ranking the health care systems was based on a wide variety of findings, including but not limited to, life expectancy, infant mortality and cost.

Yes, it does become quite difficult for the WHO officials to have their word on who has the best healthcare system as there are lot of things that should be taken into consideration while looking for an output on this. The system even now does vary a lot but amidst this the thing that should be taken care of is that the people are provided the help they require. US does have a good system but it is not the one that could be called the best though it has some very good facilities to have it provided. This remains a matter of concern and should be sorted out at the earliest.

From my search review US has the best health care system. After US I would to say the name of Canada because it also has the best health care system. Some researches are reviewing that US has no good health care system but I am agree with them. The country has good health care and emergency systems.

Well all countries are interested in health care system. As my opinion US is the best in health care because their government is very interested in health care events and their are lots of facility for human health care.

Well, I guess we have a winner now. Since the data and statistics are collected by the WHO, I believe that that is the most trustable source that France is the best country that provides the best healthcare services for its people. I believe that world leaders should put an eye on this issue and maybe learn from France and see what they are doing for its people, rather than trying things that might or might not work. disease
