To evaluate the US healthcare system, there are two areas that have to be considered. One of these is patient care, and the other is finances. A healthcare system can only be effective if patients are getting the care they need, and if they're getting it in a timely manner. The system also has to be sustainable, and if it is not possible to afford the system, then changes need to be made to it. These changes should not compromise the care given to patients, though, and it can be difficult to provide proper, quality care at a price that is realistic. Like any system, the US healthcare system has flaws in these areas. It is better than what is offered in many countries, but there are still vast improvements that could be made.
