Post 6 !!!

 

A social problem found in the social classes is the public health system. Chile has a mixed health system, that is, it is made up of a private and public system. The public system corresponds to the national health fund (FONASA) and the private system to the ISAPREs. I believe that we are all aware that there is a great difference between these systems, for example, the hours in the public system sometimes take years to realize or do not have the implements, professionals needed by the population, in contrast, the private system has these requirements but is a lucrative business that is only interested in money and are reflected in their "health plans", where the legal 7% rises to very high percentages. It is also important to note that there is discrimination in these systems, there are charts that reflect that the wealthier population belongs more to the private system, while the population with fewer resources does not have the means to opt for this health system. Discrimination also exists between the rural and urban population, with people living in rural areas having fewer opportunities to opt for the private system.

 

I feel that Chile should focus on improving its health system in Chile by implementing public policies that can be carried out and that are not utopian. The population urgently needs this system to be improved. When we were in the coronavirus peack many deaths occurred because of these shortcomings and not being prepared, despite seeing the more developed countries in this context.

 

I hope they are well and that they can rest next week, I encourage! there is already less than a semester left :). GOODBYE.
