The new chart is very much useful then the older one, any one can easily understand the chart, it shows the data accurately. Very important blog posting related to health care data.

Your chart Jon, is much clearer – easier to identify if there are any correlations between the variables. I think the biggest problem with the original chart, and I know this wasn’t the point of your post, is that it’s just a poor choice of data to begin with.

How did you get the bubble legend to appear. I can build it and then copy it onto the chart, but wonder if there is something in excel 2007 that will do it for us.
thx

I also took a shot at a redo of the NGM data graphic and have it posted on flickr here: I've added the outcome of infant mortality and the independent variable percent public spending on health. What I find fascinating is that for the G8 countries in the OECD higher health care costs correlate negatively with life expectancy and positively with infant mortality while percent public spending correlates in the opposite sense! Is this an argument for more government control over health care? For single payer?
