Potential causes for the problem of lack of funding

Government hospitals rely almost entirely on the federal or national government for funding. Thus, the key cause of the problem is underfunding by the national government. The local government had done very little in regards to addressing this issue. The public hospital system in the state of Arizona is in short of cash, a crisis that has led to the lack of adequate health workers, ambulances, as well as medical equipment to offer quality care. It would seem that the budget is not sufficient for current services (Alison, 2013). In the United States, public hospitals get substantial funding from state, locals, and/or national governments. Additionally, public health organizations might charge Medicare, Medicaid, as well as private insurers for the care of patients. Public or government health organizations are more likely to provide comparatively unprofitable medical services.
