Health Care
Health Care, The Pros and cons Universal health care has been a hot topic of debate for several years in the USA. Having been adopted north of the border in Canada, the USA has yet to recognize universal health care as being sufficient for the USA.
Pros:
Develop a central national database which makes treatment and diagnoisis easily accessible which will help doctos.
Free medical services would encourage people to inquire about problems early, as many people avoid physicals and other measures due to the costs to get these done currently.
Medical professionals focus on the task at hand which should be healing instead of worrying about whether or not a specific patient is covered by insurance.
Eliminate paper work, time and money due to the excessive amount of paper work that needs to be filled out for insurance claims then has to be reviewed by an approval department then if approved, checks need to be sent along with patients going home and receiving bills in the mail.
Having universal health care helps out businesses and attracts more businesses to operate in the country.
The number of uninsured citizens continues to grow larger and is already above 40 million.
Cons:
You can argue that most government agencys do not run efficiently so what makes you think that they will be able to handle a division as important as health care.
Universal health care will increase the tax citizens pay and thus can be argued that "free health care" is not really free since your being taxed more.
Universal health care would encourage people to go to doctors even for the slightest of things so doctor visits would be several times more frequent and thus cost a lot more.
People who take care of themselves who are healthy and hardly go to the doctors would have to pay the medical bills of those who abuse the system and for those who do not take care of themselves like smokers who choose to smoke even though they know its bad for them which eventually will lead to those to use medical services more often then those who do not smoke.
There are several view points that can be taken from this and these are just some of the pros and cons but there is a lot more views that can be listed on the pros and cons. One thing that can be noted is that universal health care is used in places around the world and it is fact that countries that do have universal health care pay less and receive better health care then countries that do not have it.
