Top 3 New/Old Healthcare Initiatives

13 Apr, 2009  |  Written by Rene  |  under Health Insurance News

1) Personal responsibility

This is simply our responsibility to each other to take care of ourselves and our overall health. Yes, eat right, exercise, be smart and have fun, but gauge your risks. This is our health responsibility.

2) Social responsibility

Our society has a responsibility to us for instituting and overseeing quality healthcare in the private sector. Businesses want, to provide and meet our needs, but it is government that acts as an overseer. In a country as rich, beautiful, and bountiful as our is, it is not acceptable that our government cannot implement a better system to encourage more efficient care for all of us.

3) Professional responsibility

This represents the responsibility of our caregivers, the doctors, nurses, surgeons, paramedics, and all others directly involved in providing for our care. They go through countless hours of education and training to do their very best, most actually do every single day; thank you.

While I state the obvious above, it is nevertheless a fact that many of us take our health for granted, do not get health insurance, and put our lives and health at risk without thinking of the repercussions to ourselves and our families.

Just as well, our government hasn’t been able to implement a better system and hinges at times on total failure and a true example of inefficiency. If you are one that thinks the government could do “better” if there was universal care, please look at the facts and inefficiencies in Medicare and any system that the government runs; Yet, they must play their role as overseer of the private sector.

Lastly, there are also practitioners that do not make the cut and lack professional responsibility.

Nothing is perfect, but we must work ever so hard and struggle to always continue to make us better.
