Solving our Health Care Problems

In this article, it talks about the problems that health care will have with the new health care reform. The problem with the reform is not that more people are getting health care, because this is a good thing, but rather, there aren't enough physicians and nurses to take care of the massive amounts of people that will soon be getting health care. People who have health care now can vouch that it can take a long time to get in to see a doctor between planning an appointment and waiting in the waiting room. On top of all this, once you do get into an examination room, the doctor only sees you for at maximum, ten minutes.

Health care is important for everybody. This new health care reform will help our nation become a healthier nation, but how can we educate and train thousands of more doctors in such little time? It's not possible. What is possible is to allow free immigration for liscenced doctors, nurses and Medical technicians. If people from different countries are able to move with their whole family to America, then they would be more willing to come, but moving an entire family is expensive. If the American government were to allow free immigration to doctors and nurses for a short period of time, I imagine that there would be a flood of people trying to move to America.

There are plenty of utilities to help this health care reform work, but it will take a lot of planning and organization. It is important to look at what is more important, the health of our country, or preventing immigrants from moving to our country. There are a lot of politics behind immigration, but when push come to shove, it's pretty simple to let people into our country in a controlled manner. Overall, the health care reform in necessary and compromises will have to be made in order for it to work.
