標(biāo)題:How hospitals inflate America’s giant health-care bill
Non-profit institutions are no help
正文:Who is to blame for America’s enormous health-care costs? The sector accounts for almost a fifth of the country’s GDP, twice the average for wealthy countries, yet outcomes are no better. Americans under 70 are almost twice as likely as their counterparts in similarly affluent nations to die of cardiovascular diseases. Death rates due to other conditions like diabetes and kidney diseases are also much higher.
知識點(diǎn):blame for v.phrase

Don't blame him for the mistake. It wasn't his fault. 別為這個錯誤責(zé)怪他。這不是他的錯。
