Free Health Care Case Study

Dr. Cure looks around the hospital where she has been working for 15 years. She was one of the few attendants that has stayed at Community Memorial Hospital. All her other peers have found a better paying job, unlike her. The salary has lowered since there is so many people coming in to get treatment. Dr. Cure used to get payed with the money that the patients would have to pay for medical treatment. However, since universal health has overtaken Community Memorial Hospital, there is little money that will be distributed throughout the doctors. There is small amounted of medicine, due to how many people come in the hospital. This is what our world is going to lead to if universal health is going to be allowed. Therefore, health care in the
Universal health will potentially lead to lack of staff, they will not be paid well, and that would lead to them quitting. The doctors would get paid from the money that the patients were required to pay. However, when the patients do not have to pay, it is difficult to find the money to pay the staff.
