Well, the good news is that between Robin Hanson's claim that we receive twice as much health care as we should and these guys' claim that "Americans only receive about half of recommended medical care", on average we're getting it pretty darned close!

Right. Also, since most published research findings are wrong anyway, it's not such a big deal that doctors don't know about them! Life is good!
