For the 14,457th time, we are talking about the healthcare system, not individual hospitals or the care received by a percentage of the population.
Nobody gives a f**k about where the best hospital is when they can't access it.

"This country has the worst road system in the industrialized world."
"Yeah but look at that new toll road they built. It's got heated lanes. It's got the infrastructure to support automated cars. It's recognized as the best road ever."
"...But I don't care about individual roads. I'm talking about the totality of roads..."
"Dur hur we got the best roads."
"Well, you have the best ROAD, but not the best road system. In fact you have the worst road system."
"I GOT MY FANCY ROAD YOU POOR. NUMBER ONE."

As a whole they aren't the best. Because once again you are just talking about one measure (capability) while ignoring all the rest of them (cost, access, outcomes).
