Whats not so great about the US health care is the quality and the access. How people may not be able to afford the care that they need. Something thats "great" is that the US is very knowledgeable when it comes to research, the US may not be the best but it's up there. ]]> 2021-04-26 21:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461663832 https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461665519 Maxine, Alexandra, Fiona, Emily

1. The US has a lot of advanced technology and we have high rates of breast cancer screenings as well as flu vaccinations.   

2. Something that should be changed within the US health care system is the fact that we have the lowest life expectancy and highest obesity rate even though we spend so much money on health care. In addition, the US could benefit from making healthcare more accessible and affordable. 

3. One small thing students can do is to stay in school and educate and inform themselves. Some can also join organizations and non-profits that have the goal of improving healthcare. ]]> 2021-04-26 21:01:27 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461665519 https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461667530 Genesis H., Sofia C, Ava H., Sophia H. 
According to the health system tracker the US has the least Cancer death compared to an average of the rest of similar sized countries.
One way we could improve is by having healthcare be free for everyone and available for undocumented citizens. The US has the highest mortality rates in diseases for the circulatory system, cancers, and premature deaths, even though the US spends the most money on healthcare systems.]]> 2021-04-26 21:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461667530 https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461667550 Hannah, Kiki, Loys, Serenity
- The US health care is not the best since the US has the highest chronic disease burden, and a lot of Americans spend more money on the healthcare than other countries. There are general problems such as restrictive practices associated with managed care, racial bias, gender bias, and hospital errors. One thing that could be changed would be the cost of accessing health insurance and healthcare. Good things about US healthcare are that the US is doing well in preventative measures like vaccinations and breast cancer screenings and there are multiple medicare plans that Americans can choose from. ]]> 2021-04-26 21:02:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461667550 dmadali0003 https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461671580 Denise, Zoe, Jada, Haley
- Americans had fewer physician visits than peers in most countries and spends nearly twice as much on health care then the average OECD country, but has the lowest life expectancy and highest suicide rates among 11 nations. One solution is to increase the amount of physician visits and find a way to more effectively spend our money. On the other hand, what's great about it is that the U.S. outperforms its peers in terms of preventive measures having one of the highest rates of breast cancer screening.]]> 2021-04-26 21:03:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461671580 https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461674793 Alexis, Monica, Aimee, Marbella
something that is good would be is how they calculate the morality rate by like how the people died, yet something that is not good is that the reason for was that the U.S scored last for having accessible health care. Something we can do to help is maybe look on how the other countries made their healthcare more accessible for everyone and then incorporate it into our healthcare.]]> 2021-04-26 21:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461674793 aholder0002 https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461679113 Allianna H, lindsay M, Nathaly R,
1. Mortality rates for respiratory diseases fell over the last 10 years in the U.S. and across comparable countries.
2.  The US spends  more on health care than other country because of the medical technology the have. 

3.Economy prosperity are highly correlated with lower maternal mortality rates, the US is an outlier with the highest rate of pregnancy-related deaths.

1. In the US we have advanced technology and quality health care. We do well with preventative measures by screening, testing, and vaccinating people.
2. For all the money that is spent by the US for healthcare, there is a lot that is not being used in the right places. It is not affordable to everyone. We have the highest rate of obesity, suicide, and chronic disease burden. 
3. To help achieve a change in healthcare students should advocate there opinions on changes that need to be made. They should keep themselves up to date on what is going on in the healthcare industry.]]> 2021-04-26 21:12:12 UTC https://padlet.com/sueleifield/jlzifcf3fmameh1q/wish/1461694440
