By staff reporters

Does Health Care Contribute to Health?
Obviously many factors impacts an individual’s health. I think one of the greatest contributor to an individual’s health though, in addition to genetics, is the prenatal environment.
After birth, I think, quality health care is one of many factors that contributes significantly to an individual’s well-being whether it’s emotional health, physical health, intellectual health, etc.
Therefore, I suggest the question should be this: Does (Quality) Health Care Contribute to the Maintenance and Enhancement of Health? To which I would say absolutely!
