be sustained. The costs of caring for the sick accounted for the majority of escalatin g health care
dollars, which increased from 5.7% of the gross domestic рroduct in 1965 to 17.8% in 2015.

health care delivery system, can also be instrumental in working рolitically to cr eate a health
care delivery system that will meet health needs. While nurses are in several current TV series
