No, sorry. This particular figure definitely includes healthcare that contributes to longevity in our country.

You don't have to guess or bet, you just have to look at how such figures are obtained and what they include, it's listed right there with the figures (this list is off the CIA's .gov website, readily obtained via a google search)

The WHO has similar, but slightly different, rankings, based upon inclusion and exclusion of a few other things.
