Doctor's Fees
Health care is one of those fundamental rights we should be able to expect as citizens of a country that concerns itself with the well-being of its citizens. Sadly, however, this is the one area that sadly lacks in providing even half of citizens with an adequate basis of health throughout their lives. Many things have been blamed for this state of the situation. At the top of the list of reasons is funding. Government simply does not have sufficient funding to provide all citizens with the health care they need. However, when considering the government's interference in the health care field, critics have increasingly questioned the wisdom and effectiveness of such effectiveness. Doctor's fees, for example, are being regulated by the government. But what are the effects of such regulation on the quality of care received? It appears that doctors whose fees are regulated fail to provide a very high quality of care in terms of their advisory relationship to patients, the removal of competition from the market, and an emphasis on government and corporate agenda rather than health care.
