I would take that with a grain of salt, since the study here says it only deals with death inside of the hospital (which is what is expected of a system encouraging the individual to flee the expensive place as soon as possible):
In addition, the median age of patients is quite a lot higher, and as we all know, we all die at some time. If i am in my 50s and have a heart attack, sign me up for a German hospital 100% of the time, at least i am not bankrupted afterwards if i survive.
It's hard to measure for those that don't try , but have to assume death will be declared in hospital for those on their way there.
