“Is Everyone Getting Quality Health Care in the United States?”

The access to quality health care has become a challenging topic in the United States today. There are numerous factors that affecting an individual’s quality of life.  Among those factors like access to nutritious food, proper shelter, access to education, physical safety, etc., the access to quality health care is one of the prerequisites of an individual for attaining quality of life. But due to elements like lack of education, income inequality, rising health insurance citizens are not able to get proper access to quality health care. As a result, these factors are creating a big disparity in the quality of health care among the general population. According to Adam, the United States has world’s most expensive health care (Adam 3). The health care is becoming a serious issue because all the citizens are not able to afford the quality health care services. The lack of access to quality health care is resulting due to income equalities, lack of education, increasing health insurance, and various state and federal laws. In this paper explains, how the U.S health care system fails to protect the individual’s right to quality health?        

I have chosen this article “The Problems of the Health Care System Are Exaggerated." Written by Matthews, Merrill, and John C. Goodman because it is academically creditable and is written for the public. It talks about the quality of healthcare in the United States which is related to my topic. In this article, Matthews clarified the reactions of the U. S medical services framework that has been portrayed as more noteworthy than it really seems to be. The author likewise examines some regular myths about the health insurance system and its quality in the United States. In the United States the administration has never given all-inclusive scope to everybody in the nation and as of now, they have a framework called “managed care” where few nation nationals have private safety net providers and can pick which doctors they wish to go to (Matthews 20). These frameworks are useful for none, neither for the individuals who are guaranteed and for the individuals who are most certainly not. The issue is that lower white American middle-class people make sufficiently only to live, however shockingly can’t bear the cost of essential health look after the individuals who are safeguarded, they should pay for valued doctor’s facility expenses to make up for those uninsured. As per Matthews, The United States government gives fundamental wellbeing scope called “Medicaid” to native extraordinarily beneath the destitution level and the administration help called “Medicare” given to the whole elderly populace mature 65 and older (Matthews 24)., However this leaves countless with no kind of scope by any stretch of the imagination. The present medicinal services arrangement of the United States is awful for organizations huge or little expect medical coverage business. In U.S it’s an obligatory decide that business ought to spring for human services for their representatives and because ought to spring for healthcare for their representatives and because of this, many private business people are not doing any business in view of the worries about the medicinal services costs and numerous bigger firms are likewise experiencing this issue.

        In this article, “The poor often lack access to health care,” Written by Prof, James Mullahy, he explains the connection between the Quality healthcare and poverty and investigates the difficulties that the low wage American are conforming to get quality healthcare. In the present situation, the doctor is making less money and the patients are paying progressively and most the benefit are taken by the insurance agencies. This is also one of the main problems in the United States. Not one or other, every one of the citizens is not getting the quality healthcare nor the doctors are paid well. Which make themselves motivate to work for better medical services benefits in a remote area also. The insurance company agencies dependably make a sheltered side for themselves and pass their weight to the person who buys health insurance. There are numerous U.S citizens who do not take health insurance. The Universal Quality healthcare system that assists everybody with or with or without health care coverage may be the response for every one of the issues confronted by the United States health care system. As indicated by Mullahy, Many Americans every year suffer the symptoms of not having the medical coverage (Mullahy 3).  

In this article, “The health care system favors the wealthy and harms the poor, “written by Adams Gay. The author explains about the health care that favors only wealthy people and poor people are always behind. Contrast with its favorable circumstances America healthcare system has more disservices. Many issues and challenges have been enrolled in the healthcare system in U.S. Unemployment, education is the real medical problem that has been call attention to. One of the significant burdens of America healthcare system is that people are uninsured to get quality healthcare. Normal month to month protection premiums in U.S for a single family is as of now $215( Adams 14).The premium is not pertinent for all individuals. The insurance agencies are difficult to manage in numerous situations since they have different statements and confinement that points of confinement patients from getting legitimate sufficient health care. Furthermore, often the medical coverage is incredibly costly that it is basically distant for low wages individual. For instance, my companion’ uncle experienced considerable difficulties to get quality healthcare benefit since he was uninsured and he couldn’t get medical protection because of his prior restorative condition, and when he attempted to get locate the private protection, it was distant from him. Along these lines, it is that for the health care of Americans has a high investment, however, the arrival is low.
