The Cruel Reality Of The Social Security System.

The cruel reality of the Social Security System.

Social Security aims to provide individuals with greater coverage to the eventualities that may happen to a person.

But the reality of the Social Security System is equivalent to only 20 percent of the world population as a medical insurance, and the rest of the population does not have a coverage that protects them from the risks or diseases that can occur to itthroughout your life, but will the social security system as effective as it seems? , Unfortunately, it is not as effective as the Social Security System seems to have certain shortcomings in terms of attention and provision of its services.

“The progressive extension (subjective and objective) of the protective action through social security mechanisms until the system launched on 1-1-1967 was carried out with great difficulties and under the constant warning of the financial insufficiencies ofClearly deficient social insurance. And to these same financial difficulties the Social Security System has been faced with the 1966 Social Security Law that, despite its important and progressive subjective and objective extension, has constantly invoked economic-financial difficulties in goodpart of the reform regulations that have been happening since its inception ”. (Palacio, 2015).

As Palacio, the social security system crisis as a medical assurance, is due to the lack of financial resources there Of money for the insurer, many people in the world die because their insurers do not pay adequate medical attention or deny them the respective medications, chemotherapies, surgeries, also because a percentage of the population does not have the resources to sustain the high Copagagos, medicines and treatments costs that are not registered or established in the Social Security System, however cases have been found in which people have very good jobs and are bankrupt to try to pay for excessive costs, also Look at a certain rejection by insurers depending on whether it is in an obesity index or if The person is a delegate, also in case you have any disease that the insurer implies has to generate a certain cat in the person who tries to access the insurance entity.

The United States where the filmmaker Sicko Michael Moore is stressed, which raises the critical situation that the social security of the United States lives because social security in this country is not universal, that is to say that the citizen must pay for himselfsame their treatment or part of the amount, not being terrifying this situation insurance companies ask their medical inspectors of clinical cases to study to maintain a certain range of denial to patients with terminal or critical diseases and this will be recognized with a juicybonus.

Dr. Linda Peeno declared on May 30, 1996 before the United States Congress, textually “I am here above all to make a public statement, I denied a man a necessary operation that would have saved his life and that denial caused his death, no entity or person accused me of some responsibility, because what I did was save the company half a million dollars and win a reputation as a medical director ”, but really where the shortcomings of the sanitary aid system come from because everything isHe traces in the government of President Richard Nixon which expresses through a recording on February 17, 1971, that the health aid system would be permanently privatized, transforming the concept of health aid to industry, because fewer citizens could accessHealth aid, this means greater gain for health lending companies .

However, there has been attempts to change the health aid system by Hillary Clinton wife of President Bill Clinton, who tried to propose universal legislation to the health system, but this did not have a result because the health industry was inAgainst this proposal and took care of a strong campaign by associating this proposal with a socialist regime, when touching this word, the era of the cold war and the missile crisis in Cuba, with the ideological warfare, reminded the United States, with the ideological warbetween two political currents such as socialism by the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) and capitalism by the United States.

This health aid system with shortcomings and inequality that is in the United States is not the same in the rest of the tissues among them stand out: Canada, Great Britain, France and Cuba, in these countries Social Security is a right to all for allIts citizens regardless of whether it is rich or poor, if it has a stable job or is unemployed, if you have any terminal and/or critical disease or if you are in a healthy condition.

The Canadian health system, suffered very strong criticism from the United States expressing that doctors charged less or that the person had to wait for a period of time to receive treatment, medication or surgeries, stating that the United States was immediate andEffective, but the Canadian health system is a universal, equal, effective and most important system.

The British medical assistance model is characterized by providing universal coverage, is free, since this is paid with the taxes of all citizens, its main objective prevails in preventive hospital medicine, the diagnosis of early diseases and the prevention of labor diseases, it is a system where health is very well covered.

The French health system has as its main principle solidarity, those who have more resources pay those who have less economic resources, in other words: they pay based on what you can pay for and you receive what you need, medical attention is free .

The Cuban health care model is universal and free, its health is free because it is less expensive, this is because Cuba prevents diseases by making preventive campaigns to different diseases, taking into account these principles, it can be said that the system ofCuban Health is superior to the United States Health Aid System.

In Europe, public health is essential, but in America a social security system has not yet been established with a principles of solidarity, universality, equity, equality, respect and that attend all citizens regardless of their social status orStatus, whether or not it has a disease, and that it is a completely free system paid for the multiple taxes paid by citizens, but that is still adequate, early and effective medical care without having to wait for a period of time to receiveThe proper treatment of any kind, whether medications, chemotherapies, operations, pre -care and post surgery palliative treatments and other medical agents.

It is sad to find some similarity in the filmmaker Sicko of filmmaker Michael Moore with the reality that Colombia lives with the Social Security system, which although excessive sums of money are not paid in co -faces and regular or basic medicines, has a giant failure with theCoverage, the rejection of trying to access a public insurance company, the period of time in which the patient has to wait to be treated by a specialist or to receive a decent and adequate treatment of his illness, also the low quality and lackof knowledge in which patients are treated in the various care centers, despite Decree 0019 of January 10, 2012, it is expressed that citizens will benefit in the respective Social Security processes, but much remains to improve in theColombian Social Security System.
