domestic policy on health care:
paying health insurance has become a huge burden for many families in many states of united states of america in last few decades. in this regard, several healthcare reforms were held. the reason behind the reform was to make a single payer system in health care. most of health insurance paying system were owned by private companies.
medicaid is a health insurance program which is designed for low income families. this scheme is funded by both state and federal government. legal permanent residents of citizens of united states of america with low income also are eligible for this program.
medicare is a health insurance program funded by federal government that supports elderly americans and children with disability and renal problems.
eventhough, these programs are well adopted and practiced in united states of america, there is no such adopted health insurance program or health policy that could support or meet the health needs of the entirepopulation of the country under a sindle payer system. till this time, the usa has not adopted any such program which in itself is a issue. this issue has to be solved by adopting universal health coverage so as to make a healthy america dream come true.
