In my work setting, we strive to ensure our patients receive quality healthcare regardless of their socioeconomic standing by providing a sliding fee schedule for those with low incomes who cannot afford regular fees. We also offer payment plans and discounted services depending on the patient's needs, which helps reduce any potential costs associated with healthcare services. Furthermore, we have implemented various educational materials about health related topics so that our patients are more informed about how to take care of themselves both mentally and physically. Finally, we collaborate with local community organizations in order to expand our outreach efforts and provide additional assistance such as free screenings or immunizations for those who may not be able to afford them otherwise; which has helped us create a stronger bond between us and the members of our community while allowing us better serve them too.

The current national healthcare issue/stressor I have selected for analysis is access to affordable care. The social determinant that affects this health issue the most is income level and class. Access to affordable medical care has been a major concern across the nation, as many people lack adequate coverage due to limited financial resources or employment. This puts those without insurance at an even greater risk of not receiving necessary treatment if they become ill or injured and can result in expensive emergency room visits or delayed treatments that could worsen conditions.
