I don't believe one can tell if a health care system is good just by reading a short series of anecdotes. It would require more than that. You would need an observational study to look at large numbers of favorable versus unfavorable patient outcomes.
Unfavorable outcomes might average about 5 or 6%? perhaps? So you could get as many as 30, 40, or 50 people saying that patient care is great, while unfavorable outcomes might be as high as 10 or 12 %.
