Alternative medicine VS western medicine
The medicine of nowadays make available incomparable opportunities for the deliverance of health care services to various patients, provide treatment of diseases that used to have no cure a long time ago and cause an increase in the quality of these health services. Though, the prevailing state of affairs more so in the United States of America proves the reality that the modern medicine potential is not yet realised fully. The alternative medicine could actually function significantly more efficiently and, for that matter, it becomes possible to make a reference to the illustration western medicine, which is well thought-out to be much more effective though, from the only economic perspective this system bears a lower chance as opposed to the alternative one (Micozzi, 15).
ACCESSIBILITY
Upon analysing the prevailing state of affairs in alternative and western medicine, it is paramount to acknowledge that accessibility is one thing that indicates that a system of health care is effective. Truth be told, the Western medicine is thus more accessible as compared to the alternative one and as a matter of fact, the alternative medicine lays its basis on insurance system and its lack practically denies any individual the opportunity to be given basic health care systems that threaten the life wellbeing and health of the patient in question dramatically (Volberding, Paul, 32). In order to make a precise argument about this, eighteen percent of the residents of America have not applied for their respective health insurance covers which significantly means forty-two million people living there are uninsured.

Contrary to the alternative medicine, Western medicine covers its entire population leaving no citizens aside regardless of the problems and various challenges. The services get delivered to any patient as a result of the state funding and the help of the charitable organisations and the public in general.
THE COST OF MEDICINE
At that same time, challenges of accessibility regarding systems of health care is worsened in the alternative medicine since the price of these services is relatively high which is determined by high living standards leading to this high cost regarding labour of professionals of healthcare and the lack of effectiveness in use utilisation of the funds already in existence. This indicates that the alternative medicine tends to spend a lot of money on their health care systems as compared to all the other countries though the effectiveness of these expenditures is relatively reduced since the alternative medicine is yet to be accessible to a better part of the society whereas the quality is for example not high as that of western medicine (Volberding, Paul, 35).
THE ADMINISTRATION
The Western medicine is essentially not very expansive though the management coupled with the funds usage is very effective. As a matter of fact, the administration of health care is done by every provincial government in the case of western medicine and the standard of social equity making health care accessibility prevailing in western medicine while very effective usage of funds back the high quality of services of health care (Jurmain, 23).
In conclusion, it is true that western medicine does not limit its citizens by virtue of their age. Everyone is viable for the services since when they are born till the day they die while the alternative medicine is not advanced when it comes to this especially when people die without adequate medical care while these are very important concerns in western medicine. Thus, the western medicine is much better than alternative medicine regardless of the huge opportunities regarding finances.
