Help: Heathcare costs for US vs Europe/Canada in 1994 vs 2009
Advertisements [?]
It seems to me that if we had a simple figure that said US Healthcare costs Americans (xx trillions) more today because we didn't pass healthcare reform in 1994, we could easily make the case for reform.

If I had the data for total estimated healthcare costs of a European/Canadian system in 1994 and 2008 as well as the same for our US system, we could have a couple of very powerful figures that demonstrate how impactful a gov't system can be.

Anyone know where to get these figures?
