Employers and benefits advisors are constantly fighting the good fight to help lower health care costs and improve access to quality care. Unfortunately, inflation is hitting the health care industry (and Americans) pretty hard. According to CMS, Americans spend $13,500 a year on health care alone. And to make matters more complicated, where you live has a bit impact on the cost and quality of health care.

According to a new WalletHub survey, Minnesota tops the list as the state with the best health care system. The survey looked at the cost, access, and health outcomes across all 50 states and Washington D.C. to determine the best and worst state for health care.

Mississippi ranked the worst for health care with a total score of 46.01. While the state ranked 25 for cast, it came in dead last for outcomes.

"Health care has two crucial components, cost and quality. The best health care in the nation isn't helpful if it bankrupts the people who try to get it, and cheap health care isn't worth paying for if it provides subpar or ineffective treatment. Therefore, the best states for health care are those that make high-quality care affordable, on top of providing many options for doctors and making insurance easily accessible," said Cassandra Happe, WalletHub analyst.
