  • How many beds?

    How does the US stack up when we look at the number of hospital beds per capita? The harder measure to get is the amount of excees capacity in the system. I suspect that the capacities are about the same across many countries. If anybody can find the average rate of open beds in a system, please post them.

    The epidemic we face today is a good test of the resiliency and robustness of the system. Here is an article which attempts to measure the effectiveness of our system compared to the OECD countries. https://www.healthsystemtracker.org/...last-25-years/

    Have we reallyimproved over the last 25 years, or has all the problems in our system popped up since Obamacare?
