I cannot imagine why this might be. Isn't the USA the richest country on the planet?? You'd think spending all that money would get you something, right??

(health care spending per capita on the left, life expectancy on the right)

      For some reason it's not. It's labelled in the description of where it's hosted on wikipedia . The left side is 'spending per capita', I believe in just flat USD, probably not PPP. Bad chart, I blame the original study (referenced at the bottom of the chart)
