    The United States has an incredibly complicated and expensive healthcare system. Many health insurers and other organizations across the country have dramatically changed the way they do business in order to stay competitive, especially with the new climate that laws such as the Affordable Health Care Act have created. These organizations have developed new strategies and processes in order to participate in the insurance exchange program and other features of the federal healthcare law intended to make it cheaper and easier for individuals and small businesses to purchase health care (Benson, 2013). This essay discusses how a healthcare organization such as a hospital would develop a comprehensive marketing plan that will allow them to stay competitive and keep growing. Specifically this essay will cover the four Ps of marketing (product, price, place, promotion), the relationship between the hospital’s marketing, its partnerships, and it will discuss the target market and why understanding target market is vital to a successful marketing plan.…

    A New Health Care System

    • 1446 Words

    One of the major problems nagging America is the need for a new health care system. The number of uninsured Americans needing medical treatment is rising. Medicare, a major part of the American health care system, is projected to go broke in 2019 according to USA Today 's article, "Congress refuses to swallow cures for ailing Medicare." I have seen this ruin people 's pursuit of happiness. I worked in a nursing home for the past five years. Many elderly patients run out of money to support themselves for their long term care. When they go on Medicare, only certain treatments and prescription drugs are available. This causes them to worsen in condition physically and mentally. I believe that with a national health care system, similar to the one in Canada and some European nations, this destruction of life and happiness will be decreased.…
