The millions of Americans who have lost their jobs and the millions more expected to fall victim to this economic recession are going to take a lot of muscle to handle, maybe a bit too much for the Health care system. Public health care has undergone revamp after revamp but with the strain that is currently being placed on it, more funding would be needed to add capacity. More and more people are going on day by day without proper health insurance and with more people opting for out-patient home treatment rather than stay in hospital are on the rise. Chronic disease accounts for 75% of all health care costs and this being the case, the new administration must have a quick way to provide much needed funding for the system to continue working.
Most private health care policies are too expensive and yet the gap where most Americans are now, not poor enough yet not rich enough is a target for the incoming administration. Just hope the solution comes in force, enough to bolster the capacity and abilities of the current health care system.
