> If healthcare is so cheap,

Well it's not that cheap... It can be very expensive for serious accidents. You just almost never need to pay anything yourself. I'm not sure the cost for liability insurance is that much (or at all) higher in most of Europe though.

The whole point of the article is that it's more expensive in Europe.

So a policy with a $100k coverage limit is cheaper than one which covers up to €7.5m? Not exactly unexpected regardless of country.

Would 7.5 mil insurance in the US be cheaper than the equivalent in in Europe? I doubt that but in any cases the article doesen't say anything about that..
