The U.S. lagged significantly behind, dropping to 49th in the rankings
for women and 45th for men. That puts it behind all of Western Europe
as well as countries including Peru, Chile and Libya.

"The U.S. is definitely on the wrong trajectory," said Chris Murray,
director of the Institute for Health Metrics at the University of
Washington, one of the study's authors. "(The U.S.) spends the most on
health out of all countries, but (it) is apparently spending on the
wrong things."
