My parent's medical bills are astronomical, and they have what is considered 'good' healthcare in the US. Fortunately for them, although their retirement has taken a hit, they won't be homeless because of this.
If someone needs to 'save up' or go into debt for medical treatment (and I'm including dental and mental in this because they are medical, despite what the US healthcare system says), can you really say we have the best healthcare system in the world? Nope. We have the most expensive.
