We've had this argument before. What you fail to see each time is that the US also has socialized medicine. We also have the remnants of a free market system. We haven't yet taken steps to kill it off altogether like the Canadians. Infant mortality in the US is a tenth of what it was in 1900. Infant mortality has fallen dramatically in every single developed country. Life expectancy has also risen sharply in all developed countries over that period as well. It is still rising in the last decade except in Russia (where they have a national health system).
