PUBHLTH 129 Chapter Notes - Chapter 14: Jones & Bartlett Learning, Global Health, Managed Care
Document Summary
Chapter 14: the future of health services delivery. Objectives of chapter 14: discuss the forces of future change affecting health care delivery, discuss the challenges of coverage, access, and cost despite the promises of the affordable. Care act (aca): explore the future of health care reform, explore the future models of health care delivery, assess future workforce challenges, evaluate global challenges, summarize new frontiers in clinical technology. Americans have long rejected national health care, mainly because it runs contrary to traditional. Challenges of coverage, access, and cost: despite the promises of the aca, 35 million were uninsured in 2015, universal coverage will remain a challenge well into the future, health insurance facilitates access; it does not guarantee it. Status under the aca is not known at present: limited research suggests that those who gained coverage under medicaid face roadblocks to access, hence, medicaid beneficiaries receive health care through sources that they relied on before.
