Global health care is on the
upswing, although there are those who may not see it that way. Gloom and doom
predictions are always a part of the larger picture, when there are predictions
about the future. This is also true in the realm of global health care.
The nature of global health
care reveals some major implications for the year 2012. While it is impossible
to predict exactly what will happen, the outcome is relatively obvious to a
discerning eye.
Many things appear promising in
terms of helping to meet the needs of people with respect to global health care
associated with other expressions of humanitarian care, concern and compassion.
There are also major changes
happening in global health care. For
example, the word medical tourism refers to the growing practice of
medical care across national and international borders.
Imminent health care concerns
for 2012 include:
The rapidly growing world
population
The rising cost of global health care
The ongoing global economic recession
The increasing number of homeless people
The unpredictability of natural disasters

On the other hand, there are
positive aspects to global health care for the year 2012.
Some of these
include:
Improved medical-health care
relief and management in disaster areas
Increased awareness of the need for immunization and disease prevention
Advancing Internet technology with improved health care communication
Expanding horizons of academic research and education in health care
Growing health care product production, marketing and availability
Increased global networking of health care professionals
Improved global heath care facilities
Ongoing global health care reform
Growing awareness of health care needs for people everywhere
Improved delivery of health care services
Increased awareness of the need for immunization and disease prevention

To keep health care in its
proper perspective in the year 2012 is extremely important for everyone.
Gloom and doom thinkers will
continually focus on the negative aspects of global health and enlarge the
negative in such a way that there is an ever-increasing attitude of
helplessness and hopelessness.
On the other hand, those who
take a positive approach to global health care in the year 2012, will continue
to work towards what appears to be possible.
The appropriate allocation of
available funding in terms of health care is important for the year 2012. Philanthropic
humanitarian projects may continue to meet some of the other, unexpected health
care needs in this regard.
Next time you look at the word
impossibility, imagine the little imp that is always negating the positive.
Possibility is a mindset that
allows room for growth, achievements, advances, progress and innovative new
developments. It offers hope for positive changes in the health care system in
the year 2012. Global care, concern and compassion prevail with respect to achievers who seek to
bring about the fulfillment of their dreams.
