health care quality

 

I think that the only way to actually solve the problem is to reform our health care system.  It needs to be less fragmented.  In addition, insurance companies should not give physicians a rate at which they see patients (5 patients an hour or 10-15 mins with each patient).  This may cause the physician or health care provider to rush a diagnosis or line of treatment.  I feel like there are so many problems that contribute to this issue.  I also think that SES plays a factor in how effective and efficient treatment and services are.  It may be difficult to improve quality because every physician has different standards and methods for treating patients.  Even if there was a standard…it would be difficult to regulate this amongst health care providers world wide.  Good quality of care is comprehensive care which allows the health care provider to get to know the patient on a personal level.  I think that this would increase the quality of care because the provider would be developing a stronger relationship with the patient.
