Differences Between Medicare And Medicaid

According to Vishal Persaud of NBC Washington, the average price of health insurance under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is $328. At first glance this may seem like a fair price, but is this actually the most affordable option? Can everybody get this option? The fact of the matter is that this is not actually the best option for United States citizens. The act forces many Americans to lose their current insurance, meaning many citizens paying small amounts of money for insurance will actually have to pay more because of the act; also, the act will force government dependency, reducing the freedom that America was once known for.

Consumer Reports said (2014), US private health insurances are getting expensive because insurances dose not fully protect to citizens and people want to get premiums health insurance for their coverage. The cost of health care in the US is the highest per person in the industrialized world and growing the fastest. Last, Cooper, Taylor (1994) said, “Financial incentives encourage expensive high-tech diagnosis, treatment, and specialization; there is not enough primary care” (paragraph 8). Hospitals and doctors want to easy to cure and does not want to see many

Also, because of the restricted technology, the government supported hospitals do not have good conditions and enough capacity. People know that the rate of the death in the public hospitals is higher than in the private hospitals so that people may not prefer the public ones. Secondly, as a result of the technology limited by the governments, human rights are not equal between the rich and the poor.

Obama Care is not helping our community. It is making some people poor, because Obama is making have to have health care although some people can’t afford it. Some people can afford it but don’t want it,and some people will get it because the want it. With Obama Care there is also less money for schools and education. It also makes colleges more expensive than they would be normally so most people don’t agree with Obama Care, and with Obama forcing people to pick his prefered insurance, people lose the right to chose for themselves.

These can cost people a lot. Private hospitals cannot be afforded by everyone but can only be afforded by rich citizens. Most of the rich citizens claim to prefer private hospitals because they provide treatments of various diseases and illness that a government hospital cannot provide as government’s annual budget cannot afford to handle expenses for some serious diseases. Private hospital provides space to treat patients perfectly. A private hospital is equipped with new equipment which makes the treatment more costly.

“In 2010, Medicare spent an estimated $48 billion– our tax dollars – on overpayment and waste. But the most tragic victims are people who need medical care but don’t have the money to pay for it”. (Allen), Furthermore, by physician also pay a important role which have an impact on the spending as well. The doctor orders masses of procedures to show that he or she has done their due diligence in diagnosing the patient. Unfortunately, all of these unnecessary tests and procedures lead to unnecessary custodies and cost to the patient.

If we went over to a free healthcare system, the federal government would have to raise taxes in order to pay the doctors, businesses, and hospitals that no longer have income from their patients. but because most hospitals are privately owned they would have to shut their doors because of the lack of income provided by the government. Therefore the government would have to provide hospitals and re-employe doctors from their bankrupt employers. By then the government would have to raise taxes higher and quality of supplies would go down for the government couldn 't afford high quality supplies without raising taxes higher to compensate for the costs. The doctors would have to be payed less for they 're getting payed by the government that barely has enough money to pay for the new hospitals and supplies, the same government that doesn 't even have enough money to keep themselves out of debt without the free healthcare system.

For many of the poor in America, health insurance is something that is not feasible. In the online report by CNN called, Why health reform is key for minorities, “Many jobs held by minorities do not offer health insurance, about half of whites are covered through an employer-sponsored health plan, in contrast to the rate for African-Americans (38%) and Hispanics (28%),”(Houry, 1). Private insurance is available for those who are not insured by employers, but the cost is significantly more than having insurance through an employer, and because many minorities are paid significantly less than white people, many cannot afford insurance, (Houry, 1). The reason that minorities do not get health care is because, “Many minorities have lower-paying jobs that do not offer health insurance, and bec... ... middle of paper ... ...n to minorities who neglect their health with infrequent doctor visits. For many people who struggle with their health, insurance is very important, especially when there are a lot of expensive doctors bills to pay.

Lower income family are steady trying to keep the head above water to survive and to feed their families. Let alone it is too expensive to pay a monthly premium for healthcare. People rather just go to the emergency room to get treated because at the time of need they do not need to come out of pocket. People rather just billed and take care of it whenever they feel like it. From the Opposing Viewpoint, Healthcare Issue, states, "Americans are forced to go without health insurance entirely.

The problem with Obamacare isn’t the provisions and concerns, it’s the lack of loyalty and promise to American citizens to their health plans and other life problems, but Obamacare is one of their problems, that it will never change in the future, causing more and more outcomes to America’s society and local communities. I think looking a little more into the past that Obamacare was clearly a bad decision from the start no doubt, and I can tell that as far as we see, Obamacare should be stopped for the future of America’s healthcare systems and its citizens.
