美国人在医保上的花费超过其它大部分国家。然而一项新的研究表明，美国的预期寿命（或人均寿命预期）已经落后于其它发达国家。

The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington studied the numbers. Professor Ali Mokdad says increases in life expectancy have slowed in the United States compared to other countries.
华盛顿大学卫生计量与评估研究所对这些数字进行了研究。阿里·穆克达德（Ali Mokdad）教授表示，与其他国家相比，美国预期寿命的增速已经放缓。
ALI MOKDAD: "We've seen an improvement almost everywhere in the world. And in countries that are developed, we're seeing a higher improvement, a faster improvement rate, than we are seeing in the United States."
穆克达德：“我们看到了世界各地预期寿命的增长。我们也看到了发达国家比美国更大的增长和更快的增长率。”
