Through the articles, I think the cost of nowadays medical care has increase year by year, and drug companies, hospitals and most health care related business companies are all profit orientation. New medical treatments do cost a lot of money, but I don’t think that’s the excuse for spend too much money on health care or medical related cost. Even the new drugs and new treatments seem to do the really good job, but if there is a better health prevention program and education provide to everyone, maybe the number of most health behavior related disease cases have the chance to drop. The waste problems could be improved by many ways, for instance, the U.S. doctors rely too much on the medical-tech tests, sometimes, the simple health assessment and physical examination can determine the patient’s condition; and there should be a family doctor clinics or a primary care center for every county or city, and that should reduce the cost for patients use the ER as a clinic. The electronic health records and other new technologies can also help to reduce the waste of resources and costs. The waste problems could be solved. I think the priority problem is that “Is the health care reform are necessary to everyone?”
The ideal quality health care to me is like everyone can have access to all kinds of health care, and there’s no waste of the unnecessary medical cost. The government should have the national health insurance program for everyone and I don’t mind if there is a little extra co-payment adds to my medical bill. People would not sacrifice their rights to health care or medical treatments just because the medical bills are too much or the insurance coverage don’t cover the payments. I think everyone should have the equal rights to health care.
