re: "Americans spend more on health care than anyone". What if it is due to consumer choices?

What if part of the reason we spend so much on healthcare is because some consumers opt for expensive, pricey medical devices, tests, new procedures, etc that aren't actually more efficient/better than the older, cheaper technology and methods?
Look over the costs associated with obesity and diabetes and consider the choices that are made (or not made) to change lifestyles. You can’t fix everything with a pill. We’re a nation of instant gratification and quick fixes, and a large portion of the healthcare epidemic can’t be fixed through either scenario.
