PMI Healthcare System Aids to Meet Financial & Physical Health Discussion

 

I’m working on a public health discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

The U.S. spends more on its healthcare system than any other country in the world but significantly less on social programs that improve health in lower income populations. Data show social determinants of health (clean water, safe communities, healthy food) contribute to better health and lower costs for health care. Our system is widely regarded as an exceptional sick care system where the latest technologies and approaches are used by hospitals and physicians to treat the sick and injured.In your first post:Describe one foreign healthcare system. How is it financed? Describe insurance coverage. Compare the outcomes of care, costs and other related statistics to the United States.
Do you think one is better than the other? What are some ways the United States should improve or reform the healthcare system?
What role do you think the federal government has in providing Americans with health care?
