Diana would have lived
From iGeek
According to Dr. David Schneider (an orthopedic surgeon from Colorado), "Socialized Medicine killed Princess Diana". Because it happened in France, they didn't have a trauma surgeon (cost cutting), and so she bled out over the 4 hours it took them to figure out what to do. If she'd been in the U.S. in the same accident, she would have lived. While I don't know if this is true, as someone who worked in the industry for 6 years, it's believable. Delayed treatment is often denied treatment. Efficient (cheap) healthcare is at odds with over-capacity... which will be needed in exceptional events like outbreaks, catastrophes or emergencies.
