Key Challenges Facing the US Health Care System
Health care is important for the longevity and quality of life for many Americans, but it is also a business. If the people who are in the business of health care are not making money, they will not remain in that business.

Medicare Coverage, COBRA, and U.S. Healthcare Challenges
Health Care Reimbursement and Billing
Mrs. Zwick and Mr. Davis have widely differing medically-related issues. However, they have a common thread in that they highlight difficulties and complexities in our current health care system. Mrs. Zwick and her daughter were understandably perplexed by the complexity of coverages under Medicare Parts A, B and C; simultaneously, Mrs. Zwick was unduly financially and physically burdened by her hospital-acquired infection. Meanwhile, Mr. Davis must somehow cope with his chronic illness, job termination, time limitations and premiums of COBRA, all within a health care system that currently lacks the determination that all people merit adequate health care throughout their lives. These issues show some complexities and inadequacies of our current system, particularly when compared with the health care programs of other countries.
