|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
not guarantee every person the right to health care. Residents of the

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
United States pay more out-of-pocket for increasingly worse outcomes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
People of color, those who have lower incomes, and those who live in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rural areas have less access to health care and are therefore at even
|
|
|
|
|
