Running head: QUALITY HEALTHCARE 1 QUALITY HEALTHCARE 2 Quality Healthcare for the American People Student’s Name Institution Affiliation Date Question 1 The healthcare system in the United States is described as a hybrid in nature with no single department financing the health system in entirety. The U.S. doesn't have a uniform and elaborate system of health, but the system is instead structured in terms of the private sector which is made up of private organizations, and individual employees and the public sector made up of local and state governments contributions (Finkelstein et al., 2015). The healthcare system structure in the U.S. is regarded as a hybrid in that there is no single national health department, a separate funding body of insurance, or a multi-paid national insurance fund for healthcare contributed by the U.S. citizens. In 2014, for instance, the private funds contributed a significant 48% of healthcare spending, having 20% from private business and 28% from households. The federal government, state and local governments contributed 28% and 17% respectively to the healthcare system. The interactions between the private and public departments during the provision of health insurance in the United States are, to no small extent, is virtual in that there is no physical collaboration between them that can be seen outright. Instead, these departments do their funding separately, but their contributions are seen from the total national statistics that are provided by the healthcare system as a whole. Question 2 The human resource aspect of any organization is essential, for it depicts whether the business organization will be successful or not in the market. The same element is even crucial in a delicate system such as the healthcare system whose outcomes are outright seen when the human resource aspect is ineffective (Chen et al., 2016). The United States healthcare system is characterized by many healthcare organizations, each having their Human Resource professionals. The role of these professionals not only entails the hiring of nurses and doctors but also undertaking the management of plants, sanitation, billing, and ensuring proper use of the financial resources coming to their facilities in a bid to ensure that the Americans get the best quality healthcare services. Several professional bodies on Human resources have been formed in the United States to solicit voluntary membership from the heads of human resource departments in these healthcare organizations. This indicates how these professionals are critical in determining how the healthcare system in the United States progresses. Human resource managers, through the professional bodies, are encouraged to be tact in managing resources hence ensuring that quality is maintained in healthcare delivery. Question 3 The budgeting part of an organizational structure is crucial in ensuring equitable allocation of financial resources to the different activitie.
