The WHO's rankings you very poor methodology, if your aim is to actually rank the quality of health care in different countries, as I've demonstrated in many posts on this thread and elsewhere. A significant portion of their rankings (I think 2/3rds, I could look it up if you want, or you could find it in other posts I've made) are not about health quality at all but health equality (where improving quality for those who already have the best quality, would lower the score), or about other issues besides health care quality.

Then there measurements for health care quality itself, are based off of measurements of results that are determined by many things besides the health care or health insurance setup in a country.
