Brent james is pretty much responsible for IHCs overall quality and was my prof

You can find his whole slide deck in this link but this slide I think says it all. And it's not opinion. This has been published in many different places and by many different organizations.

Well I can't paste images so you will see it in the slide deck.

But it explains that 40% of health is behavior based, 30% genetics, 20% is environment/public health, and only 10% is healthcare delivery!

Comparing life expectancy to healthcare spending isn't really fair when it only attributes to 10% of the outcome. If we want to increase life expectancy in the US we need to do something else.
