The United States healthcare system does not align with other systems internationally. The U.S. spends a lot on healthcare but there is still a significant amount of people who continue not to have health coverage. The US has Private health insurance programs typically funded by employers. Public health insurance programs are Medicaid and Medicare.
A component from South Africa that I would like to be incorporated in the U.S. healthcare system is National Health Insurance. National Health Insurance is a network of insurance benefits established by a federal government that will cover all or almost all its citizens. This will help ensure that citizens will get the best care possible. I do feel that we should contribute in some way however, everyone being able to be insured no matter what your status is would contribute to people being healthier.
Are you clear on what is in existence in the US? US has Private health insurance programs typically funded by employers. Public health insurance programs are Medicaid and Medicare
South Africa's system is a mix, too, right? Yes
