• Briefly, which two countries’ healthcare systems did you choose to investigate and why?
• Drawing on The Commonwealth Fund’s Country Profiles and the Kurani & Wagner analysis for the Kaiser Family Foundation, briefly summarize the healthcare system in each country as well as some health measure statistics/outcomes you found most compelling in them.
• What might account for any differences you found in your selected countries (and implicitly back to the US as well)? 
• Finally, how has your review of these other countries affected your own views of the US healthcare system?  For example, is there any structure, practice or outcome that the US would benefit from adopting?
