I need help to rephrase this:-

As mentioned earlier, there are a number of problems that the American health care unit facing at the moment. First and foremost, this is the country where citizens spent more than they are able to earn within a specific period of time. As compared to any other country in the world, it is estimated that the United States of America spent the most of its per capita income. This spending is mainly that which is directed to the health units in the country. When the per capita income is divided among the citizens of the country, it is very less and cannot actually meet the needs of each and every citizen. The core issue here is the fact that many of the Americans do not have the insurance. They therefore are not in a position to make use of the health care system. When the country is compared to any other competitor, it is presumed to spend more than half of what the competitor spends (Kovner, et. al. 2008).

The quality of any service is normally measured hand in hand with the kind of reward that is offered to the person who gives out these services. In the United States health system, the medical specialists are not paid duly as they are supposed to be compensated. The percentages of the practices of the primary care with the financial incentives are not linked properly. In other words, the doctors and other medical specialists are not paid according to the quality of services they are able to proffer to the people. When the country is compared with other nations of the same caliber, it scores very low in the compensation of its workers and especially the medical practitioners. For instance, in the United Kingdom, it compensates its workers 95% unlike in the United States which compensates only at the rate of 30%. This is a clear indication that the healthcare system of the country can even not make to be called a system. It is therefore quite clear that the country is very miserable in the compensation of its health workers (Cowles, 2003).

It is very rare to find for all the American people to be exposed to the daily care that they are supposed to get. Most Americans do not have appropriate time to attend to the medical doctors as the surgeons and dentists. Research shows that very few Americans are able to stand in wait for a doctor or chance to be attended to. For one to be attended, he or she has to be sometimes ready to wait for others to be dealt with first before being let in. This is the time period in which many are pound to leave and go for other activities. The treatment periods are therefore not kept with maximum accuracy as they are supposed to be. When we compare the country to other nations, it scores very low in the waiting times. This also translates to the very high rates of patients who skip medical checkups and treatments due to their inability to wait. It is the few individuals who are able to wait for their medical conditions to be attended to that accounts for the small percentage of those who promote the country in trying to keep the pace of the health care system (Holahan, 1990).

Many American people are not in a position to afford all the services that are offered by the medical professionals. This is because of the fact that most of these services are very expensive. Many patients and individuals have been identified to miss medical checkups, treatment, tests and follow-up recommendations by the doctors and other medical professionals. Research has shown that most of the Americans have problems when it comes to payment of the medical pills. Most of the people who are disadvantaged because of being in possession of very little are forced to wait for long before they are able to access medical attention. In most cases, these people fail to get medical care at all. It is normally critical when they have to wait to be attended for medical conditions as cancer. In this case, it is useless to wait as the health of the individual is pound to deteriorate with time. This is therefore another reason why these people are not able to wait for their medical cares. This makes their attendance rate to be zero (Sultz, and Young, 2010).
