The current alternative to the fee-for-services is the capitation arrangement. The physicians believe that the pay-for-performance is controlling how that he or she conducts the practice, but it will eliminate many expensive and unnecessary procedures (Shi & Singh, 2012).The pay-for-performance in the United States healthcare industry comes after the capitation and managed care and if managed correctly will become an asset and if not it will become a major blunder. The goal of pay-for-performance is to change patient behavior and doctors and hospitals with a rewards systems or punishment. A pay-for-performance bonus for doctors can be an increase for the general fee-for-service hospitals can receive an extra in the form of the diagnosis group-based payment (Shi & Singh,
The recommendation that I believe would do the most good toward getting more URMs into the medical field would be the one that addresses the costs and financing of health professions education. This recommendation involves the reexamination of costs and financing of health professions training with an emphasis on the reduction or elimination of many health care field training costs for those that have low-incomes or are members of a URM. First off I think that all of the other recommendations are great and would defiantly help, but when it comes right down to it our world revolves around the almighty dollar. We can do everything in the world, even beg minority’s to get into the health care field, but they won’t be able to do it if they can’t afford the education. So, making changes in costs and financing would go a long way toward removing the financial obstacle, that way the other recommendations have a much better chance of being successful.

This healthcare organization has been developed to provide Americans with an improved experience for hospital stays so that each citizen will not have to endure private health care disparities that deprive the young and old with medical care that only the rich have the privileged to
For so many years they have paid doctors and hospitals a fee for every test, procedure or other service they perform. It rewards the quality of care, but not better care. I believe the doctors and hospitals should be paid for the quality and outcome of patients’ care. The new approach to paying for health care promotes improves patient care and slows the rise in health care costs. The Alternative Quality Contract (AQC), doctors and hospitals are paid for the quality, not just the quantity of the care they provide to the members.
Obama said he will lower the drug cost by allowing safe medicines from other countries, increasing the use of generic brand names, and taking on drug companies that block cheaper generic medicines from the market.

The plan is to reform the insurance market to increase competitive by taking on anticompetitive activity that drives up prices without improving the quality of care. The Obama-Biden plan will promote public health.

The Affordable Care Act was established in 2010 creating help to lower insurance fraud and health care costs. With the Affordable Care Act, if insurance rates go down, this will create microeconomics because individuals who cannot afford health care will get it and jobs will be created (Rosoff, 2011). Macroeconomics will help the supply and demand area of health care because it will allow health care to expand to other countries for individuals in need.
