LONDON, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- Britain's health service makes it the only country in the industrialized world where wealth does not determine access to healthcare, a U.S. study found.
The survey by the U.S. health think tank Commonwealth Fund showed that while a third of American adults "went without recommended care, did not see a doctor when sick, or failed to fill prescriptions because of costs," that figure was only 6 percent in the United Kingdom, Britain's Guardian newspaper reported Friday.
