To: Dr. Clover (Unit 4 2nd Week First Response Needed)

 
Hello Dr. A., Classmates,
Health care never loses its place in the political conversation or in the normal conversation in the average home. The statement makes a point that speaks to the new and the old. If history is used to validate facts the original idea to start health care for the U.S. can be traced back to President Roosevelt in 1912. Medicare was not really established until 1965 under the Johnson administration.
The statement is viewing healthcare from a past and present point of view. In the past healthcare was heavily relied upon your local physicians that were the pillar stone in small and rural communities. The physicians were well respected and looked upon in some measures as a hero healing the sick.
If we consider current times the technological advances are competitive and the market is volatile. The focus is geared toward profit and less toward patient care. The demand for health care is an enigma without an end in sight. The cost to fund weighs heavily on those who are fortunate and the unfortunate as well.
Ideally any health care facility will need the ability to hire qualified physicians to provide services. It shows a different aspect in the health care industry when competitive cohort makes unprecedented incentives to attract and retain physicians. The health care industry will have a long-standing legacy the direction is not stable enough to say what will be the true focus of programs and future administrations as well.
