The rising cost of health care has cause the government to step in and control regulations and spending; thus creating a health care reform system. America is now entering into this reform. The purpose of having a universal health care system is to provide covered care for all its residence, dispel misnomers about the program, and America's health care system, before Obama Care, was organized around private insurance companies, which many of our citizens could not afford. With the new Obama health care system, everyone pays into the system and everyone receives care. Just like Britain's health care system, they provides free public healthcare to all permanent residents at the point of need.
Created in 1970, socialized health plans provide free public healthcare. Every patient receives free hospital care, free doctor’s visits, free medicine, and free surgery while in the hospital. Socialized medicine is so well known and regarded that Canada’s healthcare system has long been looked upon as a perfect example of what socialized medicine should be and it was even awarded the international award for excellence in 1993. Even though Canada’s Healthcare plan has had such a positive history it is now becoming plagued with endless problems. Some of these problems include lack of supplies, doctors, beds, and very long waiting periods for medical attention and medicine.
Case Analysis Canadian Blood Services I. Introduction Canadian Blood Services (CBS) has a reputation that makes people feel comfortable in knowing that when they donate blood there will be professionals that will take care of them and they receive the satisfaction of knowing they are saving lives. It is this good feeling that brings donors into clinics to donate. However, Canadian Blood Services faces challenges in recruiting new blood donors and require increase donation collections to keep up with the growing demand for blood. II.
I think that Sung should advertise its brand in a different, efficient, and effective way in Ontario and create a new strategy for the Prairies markets. Sung needs to invest some of his time studying the reason of why people in Ontario are not buying his product by doing the marketing research process. The case clearly states that as soon as someone tries their product, brand recognition is created, just because 70 percent of them repurchased the product. Bran non-recognition could be one of the reasons of why Guard does not have a lot of sales, compared to the other deodorant soaps. The promotion money should be allocated in all other regions, such as the Maritimes, Prairies, Alberta, and British Columbia.
A survey from The Conference Board of Canada, showed that 90 per cent of Canadians deem that health care should be the main concern of the government instead of other issues within the country. Because of this, the percentage of pregnant women dying at childbirth decreased by 10 per cent; surgeries for patients who are suffering from heart diseases, cataracts, etc has now an advantage with the modernized technology; extensive relief and long-term survival are also now obtainable for many cancer patients. Public healthcare service is now the main concern in first world countries such as Canada, but people must also take into consideration the other societal factors that are accountable for keeping people’s well-being healthy. Personal healthcare service such as residential services, mental health/center for addiction services and offers a variety of assistance that individuals could benefit a lot from. Home, Community and Residential Services This type of service is offered to seniors with moderate care needs who choose to stay at home.
Going to an emergency room instead of scheduling a doctor's appointment has become a trend in this country. Translated into dollars and cents that means 40.5 million people paid up to three times as much for routine care as they would have paid at a physician's office. They probably wasted a lot of time too because emergency rooms are not set up to care for routine illness, and they do not work on a first-come, first-served basis as many people mistakenly believe. To ensure that the sickest patients get immediate care, emergency rooms use a triage (French for "sorting") system of evaluation so that critical cases, such as people suffering from heart attacks or injuries from serious accidents or violent crimes, are treated first. Everyone else may have to wait quite a while before being seen.
But at the same time if a Canadian has the civic right to have access to healthcare, it still would beat our current system. In our current healthcare system health is like a privilege, the ones who have access to money are able to enjoy this privilege. The people who has no access to health care has to wait and ignore small health issues until they turn to be a debilitating health issue for them. At the same time if a national healthcare is in place and everyone has the right to have access to it, it would not only diminish the chronic health problems which is the dire lack of access to healthcare, but also leads to less visits to physician
It will help a lot with the shortage of health professionals in these areas because this society is trying to make practising in rural areas as beneficial as possible for all and is trying to promote the desperate need to have rural physicians and nurses throughout Canada. Although it does not really help as far as the traveling goes
could pay for the medically uninsured or create a system in which every of its citizens could receive health care. France, Germany, Norway, and many other countries provide their citizens the option of either having public or private insurance ensuring everyone receives care. Those countries do not turn their back on their people and allow them to die because of their inability to pay for their health insurance. It is not a matter of, if you can pay for your care, but rather it’s more of, if you need care, you will receive it. Instead of debating whether or not health care should be universal, the U.S. should be debating on which venues to take to guarantee that all of its citizens have the right to health care.
The second explanation is that the health care system of Canada is too costly, regardless of the age of population. And the final one is that even though there is an expensive health care system in Canada, the main part of the health care to elder people is largely provided by women from younger generations. And these female caregivers are not paid well by the government. (Gee, 2000) Evaluation of the Author’s Viewpoint Though the ideas of blaming elder citizens of this country as the burden of society prevail, and such explanation
