"Per capita this is doubtful. A family of 4 isn't paying $45,000 for healthcare coverage."
Cf A state-by-state breakdown of per capita healthcare spending: "States with higher spending tend to have greater percentages of the population enrolled in Medicaid or Medicare, higher levels of personal income per capita and more healthcare capacity, while states with lower spending tend to have higher rates of uninsurance."
IOW, the less socialized the medicine in the state, the lower the cost, and the more money people have to spend, the more they spend on health care.
