I interviewed 2 different women tht were differnt ages, different race, and ethnicities. They were all asked the following question. What health issues are you concerned about and why? These wee he responses andresults of the interview.

Disabled
Black Woman
38 years old.
Natasha Boyd interview:
I am concerned with everyone not being able to afford healthcare according to their income. I am also concerned with the cost of prescription drugs. Most people can not afford to pay for the essential drugs that are needed for their chronic illnesses. Another concern of mine is the doctor's being quick to  prescribe drugs instead of looking into alternative medicine. There needs to be more funding for home health care for the disabled. So that they will have the benefit of staying in their own home instead of being institutionalized.

African Woman
Medical Student
25 years old.    
pseuo name: William Lawrence interview:
I am concered with Obama Care,  and the salary of the physicians. The issue with Obama care is that the government is going to cut the salary of the medical staff. As a result, the government will not be able to pay the hospitals. There are several county hospitals that the government has not paid and that  are in deficit. I am also concerned of the well being of the care for the patients due to the dissaisfaction of physicians. If the physicians are not satisfied with their job it will effect their job performance and they will not provide optimal care for their patients. I am currenetly doing my intership at a county hospital. I witness how case management is so eager to discharge the patients before they are stable. They do this  in order to cut the costs for hospitilazation. I feel that if the government gets more invovled then the patients will get sub optimal care.

I feel that this a very controversial issue. I am not disable, but I have been in both situations. I know exactly how it feels to not be able to afford healthcare for yourself , and family. I also can relate to William's concerns about certain health issues. I am currently going to school to pursue a career in the medical field. I can understand how upsetting it would be to have my salary reduced. Especially, considering the costs and sacrifices that has to be made to get the education.
