Abelsen, B., Strasser, R., Heaney, D., Berggren, P., Sigurosson, S., Brandstorp, H., Wakegijig, J., Forsling, N., Moody-Corbett, P., Akearok, G.H., Mason, A., Savage, C. & Nicoll, P. (2020). Plan, recruit, retain: A framework for local healthcare organizations to achieve a stable remote rural workforce. Human Resources for Health, 18. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12960-020-00502-x
The article discusses the effectiveness of The Framework for Remote Rural Workforce Stability designed to fortify the remote health of rural areas. The importance of hiring and retaining professional healthcare personnel is elucidated in the light of the framework so that practicing evident-based tools and actions is ensured. The framework is the foundational research giving evidence from five countries over seven years that support addressing periodic inculcation of healthcare practices with suitable recruits.

The article compares Medicare and subsidized private insurance policies in terms of their premium costs, coverage, quality, and utilization. Differences were found between gender utilization for men and women and demographic diversities. More emergency department visits were witnessed with public coverage through Medicare with lower costs and cost-sharing benefits. In contrast, private coverage is more costly.

The absence of a universal health system in the United States has hindered its achieving cost efficiency in the healthcare industry. The article redeems that medical costs have increased over the years due to medical errors, poor mortality rate management, scarce insurance coverage, low access to professional doctors, and inadequacy in the systems transparency are some of the factors becoming the reason for the issue. Change in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has helped somewhat by empowering the system to reiterate prevention, wellness, and promotion of evidence-based practice to witness upgraded treatment and efficiencies in the administration of quality service.

The booklet opens up about portability requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), established in 1996. Five titles have different purposes, for example, protecting families and workers, averting abuse and fraud, conditions on pre-tax spending accounts, alterations required for medical...…complete incorporation.
Shmerling, R.H. (2021, July 13). Is our healthcare system broken? Harvard Health Publishing. https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/is-our-healthcare-system-broken-202107132542
It is one of the similar articles related to the high costs of the US health system. It has been observed there are high costs and low quality, especially inequalities in serving certain segments of the population. Underserved subgroups have problems in access and affordability that need to be addressed soon before the economic burden rises in managing chronic illnesses. Healthcare disparities have created larger gaps, and declining coverage has restricted those in desperate need of medical help. Mishandling investments in the healthcare system and overemphasizing particular concerns are some other reasons for the entire ill-treated agenda.
Strasser, R. (2016). Learning in context: Education for remote rural healthcare. Rural and Remote Health, 16(2). https://doi.org/10.22605/RRH4033
This is one more useful article that suggests access is one of the crucial factors for ensuring effectiveness in the healthcare system. Health practitioners should cover rural areas for which examples from Canada and Australia have been illustrated. Three factors are deemed mandatory for improved rural medical quality care: rural fostering, optimistic educational and clinical knowledge mixed with the experience of the graduates and targeted training. Technology is of high value in removing barriers to access from…
Tilburt, J. C., Wynia, M. K., Sheeler, R. D., Thorsteinsdottir, B., James, K. M., Egginton, J. S., Liebow, M., Hurst, S., Danis, M., & Goold, S. D. (2013). Views of US physicians about controlling health care costs. JAMA, 310(4), 380–388. https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2013.8278
This is an important article that gives first-hand data after investigating physicians’ opinions about healthcare costs and their connection with policy reforms. For this purpose, a cross-sectional survey was mailed to more than 3500 US physicians in 2012. The results revealed that physicians were aware of their important role in cost control. At the same time, some of the blame was put on resource availability in their profession due to government policies and fund allocation. They showed enthusiasm for cost reduction. However, payment models and encouragement from government agencies would be required.

Affordable Care Act (ACA) seems to be missing the opportunity of covering young adults, and this deficiency of the Act has been debated in the article. Health insurance for this segment is considered as it represents a considerably large segment of the population whose health should be prioritized accurately to prevent future economic burdens. A nationally represented sample for Medicaid and Marketplace insurance taken from 2010 till 2013 was ten to see the differences in sociodemographic terms. Results disclosed that despite increased coverage of ACA for young adults, there were still disparities for which extra work is required for the finest and unbiased access to high-quality healthcare with affordability.
Healthcare Health Care Law Ethics Health care over the years has become one of the most important debates to take place within the United States of America. This fact holds particularly true for the major part of the Obama Administrations whose New Health Care policies has been criticized extremely (Zhi Qu, 2010). The world, however, is still waiting for the final curtain to rise and to witness the climax which would be
Healthcare Economics Overall Healthcare And Economics Healthcare economics: Current challenges from a nursing perspective Although the subject of healthcare economics has been hotly-debated, on one issue there is widespread agreement: the aging of the population will substantively increase the demand for healthcare in the near and far future. As the population worldwide is aging and living longer, the need for essential services over a longer lifespan will generate more costs for an already-beleaguered
Health Care As human beings, our health and longevity have never been better. Many people today live to 100 years and beyond, and often in good and active health. One of the major reasons for this is better health care and more access to health care for more people. On the other hand, however, many people do not have access to the same health care services as others. Often, the main
The amendments have had practical impacts such as repealing the tax mandate of the employer, health insurance tax of small businesses and decreasing the burdens on individuals and businesses. The compliance cost for small business owners has risen by 36% higher than that of larger corporations. Similarly, the average U.S. citizen has already been overtaxed. Since the passing of the Affordable Care Act, Americans have not enjoyed the benefits that
With that in mind, even more changes will be coming to the planet in the near future. Even within the next 10 years, those changes are going to become more obvious and the health of people who are ingesting these chemicals and modified foods will likely begin to decline. When that gets coupled with the obesity epidemic, there will be a generation that will not live as long as
Health Care Professionals Healthcare professionals The paper is based on the healthcare professionals. It starts by analyzing the reasons why there may be physician shortage rather than a surplus in the United States. The paper as well analyses the factors that contribute to the nursing shortage in the U.S. And the roles of health professionals within the health care system. Lastly it covers the roles of a health service administrator within health
