Critique for The United States should provide a Universal Health care

On December 05, 2018 a blogger posted an article titled “TheUnited States should provide a Universal Health Care.” The blogger explains that the price of health care in the United States is too high, and many Americans can’t afford to pay their monthly copays. Many families are left with the endless amount of bills to pay after a hospital visit, making it impossible for average people to ever catch up. In result it causes many Americans to file for bankruptcy due to the amount of unpaid medical bills.

I agree with the blogger health care should be available and affordable to every American no matter if you have a high paying job or not. Many people will benefit from it allowing them to have a better quality of life and no need to worry about high medical bills. Medical bills are one thing and prescription medication is another. The prices of some of the medication as ridiculous, $300.00 for a 30 day’s supply of heart medication. Yes, of course some pharmacies are nice enough to have a saving plan for all routine medications but, what happens when the medication is not on that savings plan formulary? Well the patient is now having to pay out of pocket for the highly priced medication or the just refuse to pay because they can’t afford it. Now that person will spend thousands of dollars in medical bill and didn’t even received the full treatment and may possibly end up back at the hospital or doctor’s office. The government will also benefit from it as well, they can put a health care plan in place that will be affordable to every -one no matter your income status, in the process saving money and taking care of its citizens. We are all humans and we should be treated as such. I also liked that the blogger included evidence to support his article.
