Many in the medical feld, such as Dr. Matthew Boente MD, are taking this seriously, given President Biden’s special focus on healthcare. As a Vice President to former President Barack Obama, Biden personally witnessed the signing of the Afordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare. Tough challenges came and went, but Biden stood frm. In the name of the American people that insurance companies constantly deny because of pre-existing illnesses, he will defend it, no matter what. As a Democratic nominee, he even debated for his healthcare plan. And once chosen by his party, he made it the centerpiece of his campaign.

  Like millions of Americans, Dr. Matthew Boente is very much optimistic about the country's healthcare system now that Joe Biden has been inaugurated as the 46th President of the United States. There is an air of hope and change, which has a lot of people looking forward. Image source: thebalance.com The fact is, for many years, many Americans have not been able to afford health insurance, given the enormous cost of premiums and deductibles. Another truth that many people have found disappointing is that Barrack Obama's Affordable Care Act or ACA has been all but affordable for the masses. Joe Biden seeks to rectify this, but not by scrapping the ACA, like what several politicians from both sides would prefer the newly inaugurated American President to do. Biden's plan involves modifying the ACA, citing that the Affordable Care Act has brought about, even with its flaws. The strategy now seems to be geared toward creating more options for people when it comes to heal...

  Looking ahead, the next 4 years seems to be in for an upturn, thanks in large part to Joe Biden recently bagging the American presidency over rival Donald Trump. The biggest reason for the positive outlook that keeps medical experts, like Dr. Matthew Boente, MD, very hopeful is the plans of Joe Biden to address some gaps in healthcare today.  Image source: cnn.ph Unaffordable healthcare One of the most important things, if not the most important thing, that a person can own is his or her own life. Along with this comes the right to live healthy and safe for many years. Recent times have made achieving this very difficult for the average American. For Joe Biden, putting a very huge price tag on health is not only impractical, it is simply unfair, too. Joe Biden intends to make healthcare affordable enough, such that any American family doesn’t have to spend more than 8.5% of its income on healthcare.

American healthcare spotlight: The importance of Biden's plan

  No matter the result of the American presidential elections, one thing is certain – changes have to be made to the American healthcare system. And Dr. Matthew Boente, MD, firmly believes that these changes have to be based on Joe Biden's healthcare plan.  Image source: nytimes.com For today's blog, Dr. Boente outlines a few specific reasons Biden's plan should be based on the American healthcare system overhaul.  Biden's plan will inevitably put pharmaceutical companies in check. With the prices of healthcare at an all-time high, most Americans have it pretty rough. Through desperation, some people even travel beyond the country's borders in search of affordable prescription medication. Other Americans even take half the prescribed amount just to make their supplies last a little longer.  Image source: epicmag.org Biden's plan will enable the government to strike deals with Big Pharma companies to lower prices, a plan which other countries are already...

He revealed that version two of the highly criticized health care plan will preserve the best parts of Obamacare, building on them to offer Americans more choice and lower health care costs, in order to develop a health care system that is less complicated to handle. The ACA 2.0 will cover all Americans and will be free for those living in poverty.  Image source: missionbox.com Having witnessed firsthand the decline of the health care system in America, Dr. Matthew Boente MD is all for providing the nation with a better quality, more accessible health care system. Joe Biden expressed that while he understands the appeal of Medicare for All, he is not for eliminating Obamacare, which would be the result should the former be enacted into law.

The urgent need for healthcare reforms in America

Image
  America has been dealing with very challenging issues in healthcare, especially since the onset of the Corona virus pandemic. We had plenty of healthcare problems before the virus and will still have plenty when a vaccine is discovered for the novel corona virus. Dr. Matthew Boente MD understands the grievances of people who have been affected by this, and he believes that the solution is the urgent creation of other opportunities for individuals to be free of the high costs of deductibles and premiums.  Image source: rand.org It’s reassuring that leaders like Joe Biden have laid out a platform whose main priorities include alleviating the financial burden of said deductibles. A key reform is the introduction of a public option for consumers seeking individual coverage on ACA exchanges. For instance, with a Medicare-like public option, people will have an alternative to private insurance. It is not meant to act as a replacement, although it is expected to give the priva...
