&gt; &quot;I was surprised to find that “developed” countries have a lot to learn from some of the ways health care is delivered in “developing” countries&quot;<p>Woah woah woah, don&#x27;t lump us with the USA. Even among developed countries America&#x27;s healthcare system is an outlier.

So, basically, what she says is, if you earn in US, healthcare is affordable in India. She seems to think $4,300 is cheap and affordable for all Indians. Only the upper middle class and the rich in India can spend that kind of money. (Only about 25% of Indians have health insurance).
