Facts First : It is true that the US, at an estimated $ 10,586 per person in 2018, spends twice as much or more per person on health care as Canada( $ 4,974) and most other members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development( OECD) -- but the US does not spend twice as much as any other country.
