© 2011 wheresjenny.com Healthcare : A Money Making Business Today all of that has changed. People now choose a career in the health care Industry to make a lot of money and live a comfortable lifestyle. Most health facilities get built today because someone is hoping to make a huge profit. Lawyers specialize in medical malpractice not because they want to make life better for people. Health insurance companies keep raising premiums even while they are making record profits. Our health care system has become wildly corrupt and is now about making as much money as possible.

© 2011 wheresjenny.com Healthcare : A Money Making Business Pharmaceutical companies have become so greedy that now they are even attempting to patent our genes. Pharmaceutical companies aren’t in the business of saving lives. Rather, they are in the business of inflating the profit margins on their drugs as much as possible.

© 2011 wheresjenny.com Healthcare : A Money Making Business Not that everyone in the health care industry is motivated by greed but unfortunately, those with noble intentions in the health care industry are the exception rather than the rule.

© 2011 wheresjenny.com Healthcare : A Money Making Business Medical bills have become so ridiculously large that virtually nobody can afford them. Hospitalisation costs too much. Many hospitals have adopted a policy of charging “whatever they can get away with”, knowing that the vast majority of the public will never challenge the medical bills.

France, Best Health System In The World – W.H.O. The French National Health Service generally refunds patients 70% of most health care costs, and 100% in case of costly or long-term ailments. France’s comprehensive social Security system, is working on 3 fundamental principle basis : Equality for healthcare access, healthcare quality and solidarity.

At pharmacies, the pay-and-get- reimbursed principle applies, with one major difference. With pharmaceuticals the patient pays only the part of the cost that is not taken care of by the state health care system.
