"How much are we really spending on health, and is there a better way?"
Have you ever asked yourself this?
In 2022, U.S. healthcare spending reached $4.5 trillion, which averages to $13493 per person.
Now, have you thought about why you are spending so much on healthcare?
Did You Know?
The cost of healthcare services typically grows faster than the cost of other goods and services in the economy.
There are many possible reasons for that increase in healthcare prices:
Spending on healthcare would not matter much if healthcare spending led to better health outcomes. However, that is not the case, usually in the U.K. and the USA. For example, survey statistics found that the United States lags behind other countries even after spending so much on health services.
So, we asked our clients what bugs them the most about the healthcare system in their country.
Here are the factual inputs we got!
1. Long Waiting Period for Consultation
People often experience long waiting times for non-emergency procedures. This was not just frustrating for them, but also something that made their health worse.
2. High Consultation and Treatment Charges
Healthcare costs are notoriously high, leaving patients struggling to meet the expenses for even a regular G.P. consultation.
3. Limited Access to Specialists
Many lack health insurance or have inadequate coverage, limiting adequate access to healthcare services.
4. Funding Issues
In the U.K., the NHS often faces funding issues, which lead to limited resources and staff shortages.
5. No One to Listen to Your Concerns
People often feel that they are not heard enough before they are prescribed medications. They wish to know what is wrong with them instead of just following the prescription medications.
And where does everything start to become better? When Nirva Health decided that it's time to listen to everyone, no borders, no language barriers!
