Many U.S. citizens support the role of public health departments in providing preventive and treatment services as necessary to fill gaps in the system for the medically needy. Others believe these services are more efficiently and effectively provided through private organizations. What is your position on this issue? Explain your rationale.
The public health departments in providing preventive and treatment services as necessary to fill gaps in the system for the medically needy is good for the poor sections of the society. The Social Security Amendments of 1965 lead to the establishment of both the Medicare and Medicaid, that have provided health insurance coverage and assistance to the nation's elderly and low-income population. They have been a source of assistance to millions of Americans. If these services are going to be provided by the private organizations the cost will increase and the poor and the needy will not be benefited.
