The American Healthcare System has been the topic lately in the news. This attention comes down to the executive order that President Trump has forwarded to the legislation.

This is currently one of the competing solutions to the “ObamaCare” or rather the Affordable Healthare Act, where a type of bailout has been placed into order as a solution to the deficit the AHA has had on the economy.

I believe health care fraud and abuse has definitely decreased since technology has changed and upgraded. Not only has it prevented fraud and abuse but it has also protected many people's healthcare information a lot more confidential. Most people actually trust technology more than actual files that are kept in a healthcare facility. Technology is always going to change and upgrade because it is all about trial and error.
