i'd like to know the source as well ... when i google this .. it only brings up a really old article ...

i would be shocked if the US ranked 33rd in providing health care ... at least for those who can afford it or have insurance ...

Someone on the first page stated the WHO released the figures in 2000 but they pulled the figures rather quickly and stopped doing it because it there was a lot of scrutiny on the data, which the WHO acknowledged. The WHO does have pretty in-depth stats for a multitude of categories but they don't try to determine an "overall ranking" anymore.
