France -- The winner of the 2006 Euro Health Consumer Index (PDF):

Rank: France 1st (out of 26), UK 15, Ireland 25

Cost weighted rank: France 7, UK 22, Ireland 26

On the health care topic I'd like to point out that the director of the Marseilles Public Hospital has an interesting blog (in french). For example see this one.

Plenty of comment from Irish government members. Paraphrasing: "the Irish health system is great", "the statistics used were out of date", "they were comparing apples and oranges", "the report was compliled by a bunch of yahoos who don't know their arse from their elbow".

Shoot the messenger is the order of the day.
