📝 Abstract
This study is mainly aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of current health care systems of several representative countries and improving that of the US. To achieve these goals, a people-oriented non-linear evaluation model is designed. It comprises one major evaluation metric and four minor metrics. The major metric is constituted by combining possible factors that most significantly determine or affect the life expectancy of people in this country. The four minor metrics evaluate less important aspects of health care systems and are subordinate to the major one. The authors rank some of the health care systems in the world according to the major metric and detect problems in them with the help of minor ones. It is concluded that the health care system of Sweden scores higher than the US and Chinese system scores lower than that of the US. Especially, the health care system of US lags behind a little bit compared with its economic power. At last, it is reasonable for the American government to optimize the arrangement of funding base on the result of goal programming model.💡 Deep Analysis
