Health care is a controversial topic worldwide. In developing nations, the concern is on quality and access to care. In most industrialized nations, the concern is on cost and quality. In the US, the concern is coverage, cost, and quality. Four factors seem to be the drivers of escalating expenditures since the 1980s: aging population, technology acceleration, quality-of-life demands, and declining personal fitness. Quality is a function of health outcomes and patient care. Coverage is a function of legislation and cost. Access is a function of economic development and the efficacy of implementation of strategic plans.
