what is the paradox of the U.S. healthcare system? In your opinion, what factors explain why this paradox exists?
Answer: The paradox of the U.S. health care system is that there are near about 50 million people living and about half of its population does not have health insurance. They are not able to achieve the insurance as due to low income. Whereas there are many well educated health care professionals who are ready to serve us and do there job i.e. to take care of the patient. The healthcare system is not good as due to the improper content many people do not get benefits of the healthcare system.
The cost for treatment of chronic diseases is too high to avial the treatment. Obesity has become one of the epidemic problem whereas diabetes is totally connected to it. People with low income are unable to avail the proper treatment for many diseases in results it makes difficult to manage things.
The physician has to look after the patient and treat them but sometimes due to high cost, people can't afford that treatment also. They try to avoid some of the major disease and do not opt for the treatment.
