My concern for the Krugman line of reasoning is that it slanders the quality of care, when the real issue is its availability.

Nope, Krugman makes very specific points here: infant death mortality rate and lowered life expectancy.

1 - Infant Mortality rates are subject to how you define live births which is different in different countries.

2 - Both infant mortality and average life expectancy are effected not just by the quality of care but by access.

3 - Both are also effected by other factors unrelated to medical care.
