Which of the following aspects of a developed country would be most worthwhile to be copied by a developing country?
a. Education of health care professions
b. Health care reform policies to improve health care delivery
c. Advanced technology with its miracle interventions and cures
d. Our approach to rationing health care
ANS: B
Although transferring specialized medical technologies from developed to developing countries may not always be appropriate, developing countries are currently learning from health care reform policies and the technological revolution in developed countries. The health care reform policies will improve healthcare delivery and be more helpful than changing the education of health care professionals. There is not a rationing approach to health care services in the United States that could be used by other countries.
