美国人对于本国的医疗成就非常自豪。医学专家找到了治疗和预防小儿麻痹症和肺结核这类疾病的方法，他们对癌症心脏病也很有研究，拯救了许多人的生命。美国的医院拥有世界上最好最现代化的医疗设备。但是这种高水平的医疗代价高昂。
美国的医疗费用很高。美国人没有全国性的医疗保健计划，但是却有许多与此相关的计划。许多人在他们工作的公司有保健计划，根据这些计划，公司定期将一笔固定的钱存入一项基金。一旦雇员需要医疗，他就可以利用这笔基金来支付医疗费用。
其他人有医疗保险。他们每月将钱交给保险公司，保险公司然后支付他们医疗费用。有些医疗计划中，保险公司也是医疗机构。人们定期直接向医院交费，需要看病时，就去医院，而不用额外付费。
