Abstract
Europe is a natural laboratory for learning about health policies and health systems. With diverse systems to finance, provide, and govern health care across the 27 member states of the European Union and the wider European region there are many opportunities for international comparative analyses and natural experiments. Health-care costs, quality, and outcomes vary widely, which strongly suggests that there is enormous potential for European research into health systems to enable countries to make their systems more efficient and to improve outcomes.
