Is the question better, affordable health insurance, health education, or could it be a combination of the two.
It is interesting that the majority of the mass population understand what is proper for personal health management, but continue to carry out long held habits that are detrimental.
One of the major issues being discussed is obesity and how more individuals are succumbing to obesity at an alarming rate.
How sad when obesity is both curable and preventable in most healthy individuals.
Obesity increases an individual's risk of heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, and is a contributory factor with certain forms of cancer.
It is true that many health care providers will have discussions about obesity with their patients, but that is about as far as it goes.
Now, those individuals who are suffering with an additional medical condition such as thyroid issues will require additional medical attention to keep their personal weight under control.
However, obesity is generally a cause of over eating and little to no exercise.
It is also a result of very poor eating habits such as too much fat in the daily diet and not enough vegetables and fruit.
Oh how easy to say and how difficult to enforce.
The medical community and the health insurance providers are coming together to offer three main effective approaches to help all citizens, therefore helping lower the cost of united health care.
1.
Education in regard to individual preventive care 2.
Encouraging a more proactive stance of choice and health services 3.
Courage to rearrange behavior to benefit the individual and family The difficulty with the mass population is wrapped around confusion of what the new health reform bill entails.
It has become very difficult for the mass population to reach decisions and logical conclusions without having the necessary information.
Too much information regarding health insurance is still a mystery.
It will probably remain a mystery until the dust settles over the next few years.
Even women's health issues are now in question as much of the medical technology and resources are being placed on the list of discontinuance because of the high cost that accompanies much of the technological advances.
How can anyone make choices when the choices that will exist are still unknown? This leaves the medical health community in a dilemma as to how to help treat each individual and try to educate the public on better future choices.
