Introduction

" It was scary," explained Valerie Berry from the http:

articles.chicagotribune.com. " It got to the point where I had to

stop opening bills because I was getting one everyday,

sometimes two. Valerie's breast Cancer was costing her 8,000

dollars for her first three months. There are many incredible

benefits and devastating disadvantages of health care today.

There many peoples perspective that the government officials

must hear. Some people exactly know what is wrong with the

care and they can help make it better. There are also many

disadvantages in it today. The problem is that the government is

offering little benefits that are very exspensive. Finally, there are some

exceptional benefits that come form the health care. One benefit helps

twenty one year olds stay on their parents health plan, keeping the

minor from paying the devastating bills. Health Care ahs struggles yet it

It does have man benefits to enjoy like eating a Big MAC.

Detail 1

People's perspective on the health care needs to be heard and told

to the government. One perspective form people is people believe the

care is poor. When you buy health care, you think you are getting

exceptional benefits. But your are actually not getting great benefits
(said from many people around country). Another perspective from

some people are that they are being cheated. Everyone knows how high

the Health Care prices and people think it is unfair to have such high

costs for such little benefits. " We have no idea what kind of financial

future we have," said Mary Wusterbath of Wake, N.C. " The medical bills

come almost daily. There's never an end," Tom Murphy/ Page 1
http://articles.latimes.com/2008/jul/14/business/fi-lowcaps. This

shows how much the prices of it have expanded how people feel

cheated by the government. I don't feel like the citizens of America are

being cheated but that the government needs to lower the price of the

health care. If it is so expensive, why not offer more benefits with. I also

think doctors are not intentional about not seeing the elderly. I think

they must under stand that they must help every one and not just put

them on home care. That is what I think we should accomplish.

Mainly this country needs to speak and stand up for themselves if they

Feel that they are being cheated or the care is unfair.

Detail 2
There are countless disadvantages to the health care that is very

unacceptable. One disadvantage is the prices of it. Many countrymen are

accepting that health care improvement needs to occur, but a dispute

has happened on how creating a new health care system must more


organized and financed. Many people are saying that the health care

doesn't work because of it is managed by profit driven companies and

also insurance benefits that are mainly tied to a profession. If they don't have the money, people can die! (April 26 2011 paraphrase,

http://www.healthcareproblems.org/). There must be a change in the

prices of it because people can't pay the bills for it. The answer is simple

thanks to Dr. Nick Benton USAtoday.com (2011). He says," As a

physician, I am constantly asked by patients, friends and family members:

"Why does health care cost so much?" The answer is apparently not well

known. Long-term health care inflation is driven in large part by new drugs

and technologies. Fancy new treatments are expensive! Here is a simple

solution. Let's just say no to the ridiculous price of new drugs and

technology. If we do, companies will lower the price." There is solution to

one thing but there is more like doesn't offer great benefits. All the

government has to do is keep the prices the same but offer exceptional

benefits with so it is worth to buy. But on of the worst to me is that some

doctors won't see patients that over the age of 85. They just can't say to

put them on homecare. The doctors must see the patient and find out what

treatment is best for him or her. We have a lot of disadvantages in the

system, but we can fix them all.

Detail 3

With all of the upsets of health care, there have to be some

stupendous assistance to get when looking at health insurance. One

benefit of it is that minors stay on parents health care plan to save them a

lot of valuable money. "Children who are over 21 and may not have a job

that pays their health insurance can still be on your policy," said Borger. "


That's very important." Your equal's parent (http://articles.cnn.com/2010-03-

16/politics/health.care)/ 2011, page 1). That is just one of many benefits

to receive and another one is joining the military. As a health care

professional in the military, you work for your country with an outstanding

duty. The reward for serving is getting many health care benefits to have

(airforce.com/page 3/ present day or when military had health care

benefits). But another benefit is home care. Home care is where the elderly

are sent home form hospital to there own house. The exception is that

they still get the same care from the hospital but they get to receive it at

home. This helps them live a normal life and it is very helpful to people who

are put onto home care. The NAHC and Hospice has revealed that 7.6

million handicap people in the US get home care services from the

government. Multiplies of homecare recipients are as elderly as a monk

that is 85 and up. Most elderly are sent form hospitals to home care to live

normal lives while still getting care. Yet home care is some how defective

with disadvantages (April 2nd 2010 http://www.livestrong.com/article/79680-

home-health-care-advantages page 1). I really don't see how it has any

thing that is a disadvantage to anyone who is on this wonderful health

care. I think that theses benefits are just a start to what are health care will

be like later on in life.

Conclusion

There are many good benefits and disadvantages of the health care

today. One very important thing that I think needs to happen is that the

government hears about the people's perspective. People know

sometimes what must be done and sometimes it can make a huge

difference. Once the government hears there perspectives, maybe the

prices will go down and help boost the economy. Health also has a

countless number of disadvantages with it all. We must lower the prices on

it because some parents can't pay for the bills and can sometimes leads to

a very painful. And also, doctors just can't let the elderly shrivel up and die.

They must help them because that is what a doctor is made for, to help

heal people. But there has to be some awesome benefits in there. Home

care helps the elderly live a norm al life while still getting all the care they

need like in hospital. Also, 21 year olds who don't have a job that supports

their health insurance can stay on their parent's plan. This helps them save

loads of money. All in all, health care today has some disadvantages that

need improvement, but there are still some very exceptional benefits to

make it all worthwhile.

Leukemia is a very aggressive sickness which Michael Treinen suffered in May of 2007. The treatment had 10 portions of chemotherapy medicine which is 10,000 dollars per portion.

Soon after Valerie Berry was diagnosed with breast cancer, her thoughts turned to money.

Even with private health insurance covering 80 percent of her costs, the bills soon stacked up. Her out-of-pocket share for the first three months of treatment added up to $8,000.

"It was scary," said Berry, 45, of Chicago, an administrative assistant who was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer in April. "It got to the point where I had to stop opening bills because I was getting one every day, sometimes two.

"I think the discussion needs to move into why do some healthcare services cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and what can we do to address those issues," said Robert Zirkelbach of America's Health Insurance Plans, a trade association representing nearly 1,300 insurers.
