This report defines the key items that define what Universal Health Care consists of. Through the presentation of this report I hope to determine if Universal Health Care is a worth while objective in American society.

As people near the end of there lives old age begins to shed its ominous light over every aspect of life. As people enters the twilight years of there lives, earlier than anyone should, they are faced with failing health and no way to pay the doctor bills. The fact that someone who has worked all their life may not be able to obtain adequate medical and dental care because of their station in life goes against all the ideals that have made America great.

There are several different forms of Health care. Universal health care is the basic amount of care to sustain a person in adequate health. Some

Although there are many options other than those listed for health care after discharge from a hospital, The most important aspect for a person is to be well informed and knowledgeable about the variety of options available. If a Universal Health Care plan was introduced there would be no need for confusing plans and types of care. Everyone would receive the same quality level of care. It can be very confusing, especially to an elderly person when talk of finances, regulations and covered and non-covered items are discussed. It is our responsibility as future health care administrators to provide adequate information to the person who is opting for alternatives to health care.

America has a highly developed health care system, which is available to all people. Although it can be very complex and frustrating at times it has come a long way from the health care organizations of yesterday. Previously most health care facilities were a place where the sick were housed and cared for until death. Physicians rarely practiced in hospitals and only those who were fortunate could afford proper care at home or in private clinics. Today the level of health care has excelled tremendously. Presently the goal of our health care is to have a continuum of care for the patient, one which is integrated on all levels. After the person has received there care in a hospital they are discharged. When a person is discharged they either go home or to a secondary care facility. A few of the options that are available for persons being discharged from an acute care hospital can include home health care, assisted living facilities, long term care or hospice.
