Answer preview
The US health care system aims at equity, efficiency, and effectiveness in service provision to the people in the light of the available resources through the organization, funding, delivery and management. The system integrates institutions, individual providers, regulators, voluntary and government, and federal and local governments. All the stakeholders manage the health care system through communications systems planning and collaboration. The US health care system is both publicly and privately funded through private and public insurances and out- of- pocket payments (Bhaduri, 2020). The public funding is through voluntary, official, and nonprofit agencies. The three public-funded insurances are Medicaid, Medicare, and Children’s Insurance programs.
