Our current health care system is the best in the world at treating acute medical problems. But when it comes to chronic medical conditions (the vast majority of both the number of medical problems and the total costs of health care) there is another side to the story.
The current "One Problem = One Pill" medical philosophy is great for the pharmaceutical industry and doctors who see 8-10 patients an hour, but unless we have that acute emergency situation, it usually fails most of us badly.
