Discuss with your colleague rationales behind these differences and how the difference affects healthcare access, quality and cost.

We can compare the quality and costs of public and private health care. Public health services, on the other hand, are funded primarily by government and state entities. Private healthcare is usually provided by private organizations. This difference in funding has a major impact on how healthcare is accessed, delivered, and paid for – both in terms of overall costs and quality of care.

The public health system offers a greater variety of services and at lower prices than the private sector. Due to limited funding, many public health systems have lengthy waits or do not offer certain treatments. Privately funded healthcare, on the other hand, offers quicker access to care at higher prices. Private insurance also allows patients greater choice when it comes to selecting their provider which may lead to better outcomes depending on the individual’s needs.

In the end, these differences will affect access as well quality and cost of both systems. Therefore it’s important to consider all factors before choosing between public or private coverage so that individuals can get the best possible outcome according to their particular situation.
