The United States spends far more on healthcare than other wealthy industrialized countries but, according to health indicators, fares worse than most of them. On average, other wealthy countries spend about half as much per person on health than the US spends.
Look at life expectancy graphs comparing other countries, you can find graphs at Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker. Also look at graph of Health consumption expenditures per capita, US dollars, PPP adjusted 2017.
After comparing charts answer the following questions.
1. Why is spending so much more than other countries on healthcare a problem?
2. What can Americans( individually or collectively) not buy due to high spending on healthcare?
3. What factors other than healthcare affect population health?
4. Does the evidence suggest that the American healthcare system is not efficient?

Cost Accounting in Healthcare

Cost Accounting in Healthcare

Cost accounting is one of the most challenging areas in accounting to understand. “A cost accounting system is a system for recording, analyzing and allocating cost to the individual services provided to patients (e.g., medications, procedures, tests, room and board) (Becker’s Hospital Review, 2014). The healthcare industry has been working toward the goal of correlating cost with quality. Read Porter, M. E., & Lee, T. H. (2016). From volume to value in health care: the work begins. Jama, 316(10), 1047-1048. Discuss how healthcare providers and patients can benefit when cost is correlated with quality of the healthcare services provided. Post an original discussion of a few paragraphs and support your statements with research.
