Universal Health Care - Ethical Issues in Health Care Reform

By Beverly OMalley



Universal health care seems to be a hotly debated topic whenever health care reform in the United States is discussed.

Those who maintain that health is an individual responsibility do not want a system that requires them to contribute tax dollars to support fellow citizens who do not act responsibly in protecting or promoting their own health. They argue that they want the freedom to choose their own physicians and treatments, and suggest that government cannot know what is best for them.  These people argue that preserving the current system with improvements to provide better insurance coverage for citizens who remain uninsured or under insured for their medical care needs is the only reform that is needed.

Some Ethical Issues in Health Care - Requirements and Treatments

By Wendy Pan

 

When it comes to health care ethical issues, there are almost as many ethical issues as there are health issues to be treated. There are laws in place to direct the behavior of almost every person in the health care personnel chain, from the nurse to the nurses aide who assists them and the doctor who ultimately gets to try and make the decisions to treat within the confines of the insurance system ruling over the life of the patient in question.

Current Health Care Issues

By Gary Giardina



There are several health care issues that are in the news and in the minds of many people these days. Perhaps because of the push for universal health care, misuses of the current health care system have come to light. The health care issues that plague Americans need to be addressed with intelligent debate and understanding.

One of the health care issues is the overuse of emergency rooms by the poor. It is not their faults. They are simply responding to a situation in which they have no other recourse. For example, a low-income family may have a child with a cut finger. If they had insurance, the parents would take the child to a doctor's office or an urgent care clinic to get the finger stitched up.

Lately, it seems as if the Bar Harbor, Maine–based Jackson Laboratory, famous for its research on mammalian genetics, cannot catch a break in its efforts to build a satellite research facility in Florida. Since 2003, the state has heavily recruited biomedical institutions including Scripps, Max Planck, Torrey Pines, Sanford-Burnham and the Vaccine and Gene Therapy Institute (Nat. Med. 16, 1066–1069, 2010). But its attempts to engage Jackson Labs have been fraught with delays and setbacks.

In Kettleman City, California, a town of 1,620 people, 11 babies were born with severe birth defects in the last three years. Meanwhile, at least 60 men who lived on the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base in North Carolina from the late 1950s into the 1980s have developed breast cancer. And residents in Wellington, Ohio are three times more likely to develop multiple sclerosis than in the rest of the country.

Russia's biomedical industry is woefully underdeveloped, accounting for only 0.2% of the world market. But plans are afoot to change that. Speaking at the opening of a new birth center in Ryazan on 11 March, for example, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin stated that the government wants to boost Russia's presence on the world biopharma stage to 3–5% in the next decade. And he emphasized that the country already possesses the necessary academic and research institutions to achieve that. “We need to come up with measures to stimulate demand for Russia-made biotechnological products and remove barriers that often prevent businesses from working,” he said.

What is this burning question?

"Why does it hurt when I pee?"

Everyone, men and women alike, will ask themselves this question at some point in life. There are many possible causes to painful urination, from a common urinary tract infection to something more serious. But any way you look at it, "why does it hurt when I pee?" is an embarrassing question to ask.

Kidney Stone Symptoms - Tell Tale Signs For Mild To Severe Kidney Stones

 By Freddy McCandless.



Sometimes kidney stone symptoms do not show at all so you do not even know that they are there. This happens when the stealthy stones are located above the pelvis of the kidney. But once the stone passes into the ureter, the symptoms will start showing because it may prevent the urine from getting drained out of the kidney.

Pedometer - Step Counting To Better Health And Fitness

By Regina O Lee

                           

It's the inherent trait of the human nature to be on the move. Out forefathers millions of years ago were the hunters and nothing short of the fiercest predator around. This logic applies to the present day man as well. We are still ruthless in our approach. It goes the same for people associated with any kind of profession. You might be an athlete, a CEO of a top company or even a clerk at the post office. No one wants to draw the short straw and deviate from the path of success and job stability. It is therefore of utmost importance that we stay fit and fine all around the clock.

Having Trouble Breathing And What Can Be Done About It

 By Eric Cambridge

We are here

It is one of the most common things that individuals experience in their lifetime and can strike at any moment - the feeling of not being able to breathe. There are a great number of different causes for this feeling and it really depends on what your physician has diagnosed you with. However, many times the most common health condition that can cause one to feel like they can not breathe is asthma. Asthma is a condition that has plagued our society for generations and it has always been quite difficult to deal with. What makes it particularly hard is the fact that it can occur at anytime without warning.

Unfortunate Medical Experiences, And Lessons

Learned By Marisa Fanelli

Your Safety is our responsibility

So much of a practitioner's success depends on their communication skills. I know there are a lot of brilliant heart surgeons out there who feel that their job isn't to make friends, but to perform major surgery with a cold and clinical eye...but these doctors don't usually see their patients on a regular basis.

Even the most innocuous doctor's appointment inspires unease for most people. That's why I'm constantly cracking jokes when I'm at the gynecologist's office-it's certainly not because I'm having a good time in those stirrups. I'm joking around because I'm trying to forget where I am...and to cover up my fear that this is the day I'll get unfortunate news.
