| | Healthcare system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The provision of critical healthcare treatment is often regarded as a basic human right, regardless of whether the individual has the means to pay—at the same moment some forms of healthcare treatment cost more than a typical family's life savings. | | | Healthcare professionals are monopolists in various respects: surgery, gynecology, prescribing, etc. | | | Although some view healthcare from an economic perspective as being no different from other products or services, others believe it has many characteristics that encourage government intervention or regulation: |

| | End Racism in the Healthcare System |
| | It is evident that our present health care system demands that a small group (the physicians) retain its authority as extollers of opportunities, while allowing a few to join its ranks in the interest of the myth. | | | The privatism of the fee-for-service system allows the doctor to treat whom he pleases. | | | To reorder our health care system, the myth of opportunity must be smashed. |

| | Freedman is not afraid of privatising our health care system, so long as the decisions stay in the hands of the practitioners. | | | Even then, she was disillusioned with the medical establishment because of the socio-economic factors that make people sick in the first place, and was unable to provide the kind of care she wanted to give. | | | Although trained in holistic medicine, Fox found herself spending much of her time handing out drugs, a common response to illness in a medical system rooted in symptom management. |

| | The Washington Monthly |
| | Although conservatives tend to go on and on about "freedom," much of the expensiveness of our healthcare system comes from the patient centered outlook that calls for people to get all the healthcare that they want, not what is needed for their health. | | | Creating universal healthcare, largely devoid of any rationing, for the age group which has the largest health care needs, without nearly as much payoff in terms of extending productive lifespan as other age groups, was an idiotic idea. | | | R.Littlejohn, there are many valid criticisms of the American system, but to say that the American system has anything to do with a free market (which would have another set of problems) is either extremely ignorant, or extremely dishonest. |

| | I don’t care if our Health Care is better, so long as no one makes any money |
| | However approaching the future of healthcare based on the premise that effective healthcare can only be provided on a non-profit basis is absurd. | | | If we want to fix our healthcare system there are certain paradigms we must embrace. | | | However, when the Liberal Government decided that universal healthcare was a basic human right and that it should be FREE, it was in effect setting up an open bar that one could use as often as one wanted- no questions asked. |

| | The fact is that America does not have the finest health care system in the world; it has the finest emergency care system in the world. | | | Another part of the problem is that America has the highest level of poverty and income inequality among all rich nations, and poverty affects one's health much more than the limited ministrations of a formal health care system. | | | But in reality, what affects the health of Americans lies more outside the formal health care system than within it. |
