In the last blog post, I talked about how the quality of health care. Health care qualityj depends on the quality of care. This is an issue for families that are impoverished. Families' that do not have the option to get decent health care, probably will not have the best care. This does not mean that families that are impoverished will not be treated kindly or nicely. This just means that families do not have the means to get all coverage of care they can. For example a lower class father with stage three prostate cancer. In this stage the cancer has grown outside the of the prostate but has not reached the bladder. With treatment such as external beam radiation and hormone therapy, or surgery the outlook from treatment can be positive, but if a family does not have good coverage, some of these options may not be available because the price makes it that way. This brings up another issue woth insurance companies. As we have continued to discus, a person gets what they pay for. How much you are worth will help determine how great your care is. How to get that care coverage is another hurdle that a person has to jump over. If a child or parent is likley to have a pre existing condition it makes it difficult to get good coverage. Why? because insurance companies do not want to pay more money than they have too. A family that has a child that may have a genetic disorder and seeks treatment might cause a family to pay an arm and a leg for treatment because and insurance company isn't willing to give them the coverage they need. That child in life will struggle to find coverage when they are an adult too. A solution to this problem is to not have insurace companies base their prices on how healthy their buyers are. But more on that next blog report.
