Jeffrey Harrell- How Things Will Unfold In the Future For The Healthcare Industry? It is not hard for anyone to agree that the United States has the world's most complex healthcare system in the world. Because of the complex nature of the healthcare system, the changes are very slow to creep in. To understand the reason behind it, it is important that you get a deeper understanding of the system itself. Historical changes in healthcare - According to the health care expert Jeffrey Harrell, changes in the healthcare system have been sought for a very long time, but rarely have they been accomplished historically. The first attempt was in the 20th century which failed and in 1965, after long twenty years of debate Medicaid and Medicare laws were introduced. A number of legislations have been passed since 1996, which includes COBRA among others. The 2010 Obamacare was the most recent addition to the list of laws passed. Future of Medicaid and Medicare - As the baby boomer generation inches closer to its retirement age, and qualifies for the Medicare, healthcare spending by local, state, and federal is projected to increase. If we assume that the government continues to subsidize premiums of the marketplace for the populations earning lower incomes, this increased burden of government healthcare spending will have a huge impact on the entire healthcare system in the U.S. A shift in Healthcare: Not only is the technology and policy changing but also the people involved in healthcare are also changing as well. Healthcare providers are an integral part of the healthcare system any changes that are to take place in their curriculum, demographics are most likely to affect the patient's care directly. It is evident from many pieces of research that a lot of medical graduates are becoming business- centric and pursuing M.B.A degrees and the result in the near future is going to be that private healthcare administrators and practitioners are going to rise, thus affecting the affordability metric says Jeffrey Harrell PAC.
