Healthcare and Political Obstacles in the Way of Quality Healthcare

About this Digital Document

This paper discusses several political and policy ramifications related to healthcare access for individuals in the US, specifically for undocumented and legally present immigrants in the United States. The political and policy ramifications of the research in this article center around the need for comprehensive healthcare reform to ensure that all individuals, regardless of immigration status, have access to healthcare and health services. The argument expands into the effect of healthcare worker shortages, insurance status, and immigration status. The research concludes that each negatively impact and pose an obstacle to individuals in the United States receiving quality healthcare. It is found that policy reform and new initiatives are needed to offset the effect of these obstacles in access to healthcare.
