Assignment Introduction:
The U.S. health care system has evolved over time, beginning as undefined and unorganized. Most people received care in their homes by family, and if they needed a higher level of care, they would go to a hospital where “physicians” had no formal training, and disease and death were common outcomes. The development of the U.S. health care delivery system from its early days has been extraordinary. This has included early efforts to improve the quality and safety of health care delivery through sanitation and education and evolving funding mechanisms such as employer-sponsored and public health insurance.

A timeline that includes at least five (5) of the most important changes that occurred in the history of the U.S. health care delivery system from the timelines in the Unit 2 readings and/or learning activity.
