Health care is an important service that every country 's government should ensure to its citizens because without good health care , people would suffer and the whole country would be crippled . In reality , there are countries , particularly poor countries , which do not have efficient health care system to provide to their people . Due to this , a universal health care is proposed by some so that everyone will have the opportunity to obtain proper medical care

Universal health care has numerous pros and cons depending on who is looking at

it . Although it has been implemented in some countries , this has not yet been adapted in the United States , which is questionable since the country would not have problems financially as compared to other countries . Health care is important however , a universal health care would be too inefficient to serve such a large population like that of the United States . Both patients and health care providers would suffer because it would mean longer lines and wait times and additional works respectively . There is evidence that the increase in time that patients have to wait due to this universal system will risk their lives (Cannon , 2006 . Conflicts would also arise between the government and health care providers in terms of the system 's rules and regulations

To say the least , there is nothing wrong with trying to find ways to improve the health care system . However , the government and other qualified bodies should try to see if the new plan would greatly contribute to the development of the system and provide excellent services to its people and not the other way around . Health care should always be taken seriously and should be prioritized more than other things
