Health care for low income families in the U.S. is a scarcity with 53% of low income citizens reporting to be uninsured according to medhealthinsurance.com. This causes a myriad of problems and difficult decisions for low income people and puts them at a much higher risk of serious illness. Uninsured familes are four times more likely to avoid going to the doctor than in insure families because of the cost and many of those families clame that the emergency room is their primary care center at which the mean cost per visit is $3000. Low income families are much more likely to be diagnosed in the advanced stages of a major disease because they do not get regular check ups. All in all the information that I gathered from medhealthinsurance.com showed me that something should be done to provide regular care to low income families. It could be argued that medical professionals have a moral obligation to help all who are in need because they can and are trained to do so. Money should not be the determining factor of whether a person can receive quality care just like no amount of money is worth a person's life.
