How Does Health Care Cost Get So High?
First, let’s get a little historical perspective on American health care. To do that, let’s move on to the American civil war era. In that war, slaughter date and tactics posed by weapons of modern era combined to cause terrible results. Most of the deaths on both sides of a war that is not the result of actual combat, but for what happens after a battlefield injury inflicted. To begin with, the evacuation of the wounded to move with a snail’s pace in most cases causing severe delays in the treatment of the injured. Second, the most targeted injury-related injuries and amputation surgery and this often results in large infection. So, you might survive battle wounds only to die at the hands of medical providers who either intend to intervene often quite deadly. High mortality can also be derived from everyday illnesses and diseases in the absence of any antibiotics. Total in something like 600,000 deaths occurred from all causes, more than 2% of the U.S. population at that time!
Let’s jump into the first half of the 20th century for some additional perspective and to bring us into more modern times. After the civil war there are steady improvements in American medicine in both the understanding and treatment of certain diseases, a new surgical technique and in medical education and training. But for most of the best doctors who can offer their patients is “wait and see” approach. Treatment can deal with broken bones and perform risky surgery and the like (now increasingly practiced in a sterile surgical environment), but drugs are not yet available for dealing with serious illness. The majority of deaths continues to be the result of treatable conditions such as tuberculosis, fever, pneumonia, measles and red and / or related complications. Physicians are increasingly recognizing the condition of the heart and blood vessels, and cancer but they do almost nothing to treat this condition.
This is a very basic understanding of American medical history helps us to understand that until recently (around 1950) we were almost no technology that can be used to treat serious illness or even smaller. No one treats you with the means that a visit to the doctor if at all exiled to the emergency so that the scenario that the cost is obviously very small. The second factor has been the main driver of today’s health care costs is that the medical care provided is paid for out-of-pocket. No health insurance and health insurance certainly is not paid by others such as employers. The cost is the responsibility of the individual and may include some charity supported charity hospitals for the poor and destitute.
What health care insurance should be done with health care costs? The impact on health care costs are very large. When health insurance for individuals and families emerged as a means for companies to escape the wage freeze and to attract and retain employees after World War II, almost overnight there is a large pool of money available for health care. Money, as a result of the availability of billions of dollars of health insurance pool, encouraging Americans to increase efforts to innovative medical research. As more and more Americans become uninsured not only through private, employer-sponsored health insurance but through increased government funding that created Medicare, Medicaid and veterans benefits of expanded health care, finding a cure for almost all things have become very profitable. This is also the main reason for a broad array of treatments available today. I do not want to convey that this is a bad thing. Think of the tens of millions of lives that have been saved, extended and made more productive as a result. But with growing funding source current magnitude (hundreds of billions of dollars each year) upward pressure on health care costs are inevitable. Offering physicians and most of our requests and gain access to the latest technology available health care, drugs and surgical intervention. So there is more health care to spend our money and until very recently most of us are insured and the cost of most covered by a third party (government, employers). This is the “perfect storm” for health care costs higher and higher maintenance and by and large, the storm increased.
At this point, let us turn to the key question. Is the current trajectory of U.S. health care spending is sustainable? America can maintain the competitiveness of the world when 16%, to 20% of the gross national product spent on health care? What other industrialized countries spending on health care and even close to these numbers? Add the political and election year and the whole problem would be very chaotic and misrepresented.
I believe that we need a revolutionary change in how we think about health care, availability, cost and who pays for it. And if you think I said we should arbitrarily and drastically reduce spending for health care you’d be wrong. Here is a fellow-citizens – health care spending needs to be preserved and protected for those who need it. And to free up dollars for us who do not need or can delay or avoid need to act. First, we need to convince our politicians that this country needs sustained public education taking into account the value of preventive health strategies. This should be a top priority and has worked to reduce the number of U.S. smokers for example. If prevention is to hold, it is reasonable to assume that those who need health care for many chronic lifestyle diseases generated will decrease dramatically. Millions of Americans have this disease much earlier than in the past decade and much of this is due to poor lifestyle choices. Changes alone will free up a lot of money to deal with their health care costs that need treatment, whether due to acute emergencies or chronic conditions.
Let us go deeper in the first edition. Most of us refuse to do something about the implementation of basic health strategies into our everyday lives. We do not exercise but we offer many reasons. We do not eat properly, but we offer many reasons. We smoked and / or drink alcohol to excess and we offer many reasons why we can not do anything about it. We do not take advantage of preventive health check ups are seen in blood pressure, cholesterol and weight readings but we offer many reasons. In short we ignore these things and the result is that we give up much earlier than necessary for chronic diseases such as heart problems, diabetes and high blood pressure. We wind physicians access to this and more routine matters because “the existing health care” and somehow we think we do not have a responsibility to reduce our demand on it.
It is difficult for us to hear the truth but it’s easy to blame the sick. Maybe they should take better care of themselves! Well, that may be true or maybe they have a genetic condition and they have become the unfortunate through no fault of their own. But the point is that you and I can implement measures personal disease prevention as a way to dramatically increase access to health care for others while reducing costs. It is far better to be productive by doing something we can control and then shift the blame.
Protect Your Mental Health
Thanks to the extraordinary discoveries of psychiatrist Carl Jung about the meaning of dreams, and thanks to the continuation of his research, today we know how to prevent and treat all mental disorders. When we follow the guidance of the wise unconscious mind that produces our dreams, we find the perfect solution to all problems.
My statements are based on real facts. Accurate translation of the meaning of dreams works like a drug. A number of patients suffering from various mental disorders be cured through dream therapy.
After continued Carl Jung’s research into the unknown regions of the human psyche through dream interpretation I can explain all the points clear in his work.
Today we know that:
* We have inherited a large wild conscience (anti-conscience) which is really absurd and occupies the largest part of our brain.
* Even the human conscience is absurd because it is one sided and less developed.
* The unconscious that produces our dreams have undoubtable wisdom because it has a divine origin.
* All dreams are produced by the subconscious mind wise.
* All the dreams contains a valuable message that protect our mental stability.
* We should eliminate the anti-conscience because we are the fastest possible result of mental illness in the human conscience.
* We are the anti-conscience is unreasonable, violent, evil, immoral, and cruel.
* The conscience of our people must be developed by acquiring consciousness.
* In order to eliminate the anti-conscience and our developing under-developed conscience, we must follow the instructions in a dream realized.
* The subconscious mind to give us information and guidance in our own dreams in the form of a secret, anti-conscience that we will not understand the secret of conscious messages. These messages protect the human conscience of the anti-heart attack by giving us a real solution.
* We must learn how to interpret the meaning of our dreams, according to Carl Jung’s method of dream interpretation because it is the only scientist who managed to decipher the meaning of the symbolic language of dreams. Only by following his method we can understand the message in a dream realized.
* After we translate our dreams, according to the method of Jung (which I clarified and simplified) and we understand the subconscious messages, we also have to follow the guidance of the subconscious mind instead of doing what we are stupid, one side, under-developed, and absurd desires of human conscience.
If we adhere to guidelines conscious holy in our own dreams, we cease to be a wild animal and we really developed our intelligence. We remove our absurd tendency. We completely eliminate the anti-conscience through our consciousness.
This means that we are finally able to use the total brain power, and not just a place. We have a small man’s conscience and a big anti-conscience. When we eliminate the anti-conscience through our consciousness, we begin to positive uses his intelligence. This is how we find balance, peace, love, wisdom, and happiness.
Therefore, if you want to protect your mental health, or if you want to be healed because you are suffering from mental disorder, you have to follow a dream therapy. Dream therapy is the only solution is safe for you as it provides you with the only treatment that can guarantee your mental stability.
A doctor who led the men with mental disorders can not guarantee anything to anyone.
Our subconscious mind is only wise to change the vicious anti-heart to the human conscience because this is an impossible mission. Silliness we have inherited the anti-conscience we are invincible.
This is why most people in our world are mentally ill. This is why we are working on the crazy world of violence, hypocrisy, selfishness, and greed. This is why we are not capable of ending terrorism, war and poverty on Earth.
Goodness only can help us find a balance.
However, we are as far from good as the sun from the moon. We must eliminate the absurdity of us to find peace. Only divine subconscious mind can help us understand the true meaning of kindness, so that we can obtain a sound mental health.
This conclusion is not based on my personal opinion, but the real facts.
Therefore, if you want to protect your mental health, and if you want to find peace and happiness in life, you should immediately change the anti-conscience into a positive component of your conscience with dreams in therapy.
Your subconscious mind generously sent many dreams during sleep, very clearly shows you what you should do to get rid of your anti-conscience and develop your human side. It all just depends on your seriousness. You can eliminate what is bad, find a sound mental health, and become a perfect human being.
Concerns About Women’s Mental Health
While we all tend to experience joy in life, there’s always the possibility of emotional pain, which can cause damage to mental health. Several tragedies including domestic violence, violence, or loss of a loved one can cause this pain. However, there are resources to help people cope with these events. Having someone to talk to that might change your perspective on the matter and think about the positive aspects can be helpful, and spoke through the best solution for such problems. One factor that may also affect mental health for women is a change in physical health. Changes in hormone levels due to the monthly cycle can affect mood and cause irritation and tearfulness.
In developed countries, women represent about 65 percent of patients in mental hospitals. There are two general explanations of this situation. One is the social factors, women are more likely to be diagnosed to have mental illness because of stereotypical gender roles, which assumes that women are vulnerable to emotional stress due to social factors specific to their gender roles. Another factor is that women may find themselves more anxious, depressed or fearful. Social status of women who are less fortunate can sometimes result in a greater degree of mental health problems.
Some mental health disorders are more prevalent in women. Disorders include: depression, anxiety and specific phobias, post-traumatic stress syndrome (PTSD), eating disorders, and Schizophrenia. Depression is considered as the most common mental disorders. The number of women diagnosed to have roughly twice that of men. This may not seem obvious to someone else if someone has it, but the disease is disturbing and intolerable. Feeling anxious about aspects of life can not be regarded as a problem for most people. Just like depression, the number of women affected by PTSD is twice as much as men. Women account for at least 65 percent of binge-eating disorder cases. Some women do not eat too much to overcome depression. Schizophrenia is a disease that can cause a person to have difficulty in determining what is real and what is not.
Research studies on issues related to women’s mental health include: differences in brain development that provides insight into the treatment and prevention of depression, mood and memory processes in women who can make it harder for them to quit smoking, the effect of estrogen on memory, behavior, cognition, and emotion, and in particular how estrogens seem to increase the level of PTSD and depression; genetics specifically for women that may contribute to alcoholism. It is important that women recognize the need to have good mental health. No one is exempt from the feelings of anxiety and worry from time to time. But it is easy to see when a woman is experiencing so, because it can display properties that could negatively affect its ability to function normally. We all know that most mental health disorders do not have an exact cause. This may result from a combination of life events, genes, brain chemicals and hormones.
It’s not our fault if we are experiencing the problem. We do not have to keep yourself from it because it will not help us if we do not deal with it, and often this can lead to worst results. It is better if you reach out to others for help as a psychiatrist, psychologist or even your family. Always remember that mental illness should not be taken lightly, as such, it must be treated immediately. If treatment is successful, you can enjoy your life again.
