Abstract:
The Dutch health care system achieves universal access with high-quality outcomes at a cost below that in the United States. As US policy makers struggle with issues regarding access, quality, and cost, scrutiny of successful systems in other nations may be useful. Review of health care in the Netherlands and contrast with that in the United States offer lessons of potential use in US health care reform.
