What is the Real and Perceived Performance of the US Health Care System

According to Leavitt, Chaffee, & Masong (2013), health care in the United States has many problems including and not limited to: safety concerns, poor and inconsistent quality, and staff shortages. I think the real and perceived performance of the health care system depends entirely on whom is asked. I think many people the system has a poor performance. Care is expensive and has many flaws and errors. On the other hand there are other people whom think the healthcare system is performing well. They have had good experiences and their costs of healthcare have been realistic and not put them in a detrimental financial situation. I think regardless where people think the performance of the U.S. health care system currently lies, everyone can be in agreement that there is room for tremendous improvements.

Different Views Between Patients, Providers, Payers, and Policy Makers

There is undoubtedly different views between the various parties. Where care providers may be frustrated with parts of the system, patients may not be as frustrated. Especially when there is the presence of value based care that forces providers to be more pleasing and engaging to patients, friend and their families (Poku, Behkami, & Bates, 2017). I think health care is changing rapidly and has room to become more consistently received by all parties involved.
