Before the involvement of the federal government in health care financing in the

v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


rance companies.

Through the political process, individuals, groups, agencies, and government e

ntities have a voice in developing our health care system via regulations, establi
v v v v v v v v v v v v


shing outcomes, and developing policy.

Lobbyists can be an effective tool, but they are expensive, and in the case of iss
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


ues that are very popular with the general public, they may not be necessary at

Everyone has a voice in our national health care system.

There are multiple avenues for influencing health care policy; voting is one but is
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


not necessarily the primary method.
