NURS 4005 ESU Nursing Healthcare Systems and Policy Discussion – Description
The U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services (HHS) (2022) reports a “record-breaking total of over 35 million people…now have health coverage, thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA)” (para. 3).
Discuss the current status of the ACA in relation to cost, access, and quality of healthcare in the U.S. today.
How has it impacted the basic elements of insurance coverage for uninsured Americans?
Compare and contrast the trends and issues of U.S. health care system with the healthcare system of one other country of choice.
What changes could be suggested for the U.S. health care system based on the successes of the other country’s health care policies?
How could these considerations positively impact access, cost, and quality for patients in the U.S?
How would you begin to suggest this change? Discuss the nurse’s professional role and responsibility, in terms of advocacy and political engagement, which could positively impact this proposed change.
