Uninsured Americans:Eliminating Health Disparities
![Page 29: HCAD 600 Group 2: The Future of Healthcare: Macro-Trends Effect on Healthcare Careers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042615/55a59a7d1a28aba5578b45a3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Federal/State Policies
-The challenge of achieving and maintaining fair,
accessible, and affordable health insurance seems
unavoidable.
-Health reform aims to eliminate disparities in healthcare
-Equity for all calls for the rallying of both private and public
programs for American citizens to receive affordable health
insurance and adequate healthcare services Fronstin, McGinn-Shapiro, & Shields, 2008, 0. 137
![Page 30: HCAD 600 Group 2: The Future of Healthcare: Macro-Trends Effect on Healthcare Careers](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042615/55a59a7d1a28aba5578b45a3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Addressing Health Disparities
-Healthcare and policy makers must pay attention to
managing and enforcing newly reformed federal, state, and
local healthcare laws
-“Success in reducing disparities will require both providing
health insurance coverage to all Americans and sufficient
comprehensiveness of benefits within both private and
public health insurance to meet enrollees’ healthcare
needs” (Fronstin, McGinn-Shaprio, & Shields, 2008 p. 146-
147).

Lack of Obtainable Data:
Medicaid Programs
● Limits the way in which discrepancies in care between
those who are uninsured and between those who are
insured under private health plans are tracked and
documented
● The adoption of a well-monitored, efficient
documentation system is necessary to track the
successes and failures of this reformFrostin et. al, 2008, p. 147

Career Outlook: Healthcare
Insurance Industry
