Salient features of the interview

Based on the above interview I have come to realize that the health care system in America is advance and of high quality. According to the responses by the health care professional, both the public and those people in the health care systems are all satisfied with the way in which the health care sector is managed and monitored by the government (Capretta, Pp.14). Health care professional from a professional perspective understand the importance of having an efficient and effective health care system. The health care professional who has work for more than a decade is satisfied with the current situation of the health care system.

As I conducted the interview, I was surprised to learn that the health professional career can be interrupted by the medical technology advancement and changes in the medical policies. The emotional condition of the health care professional in expressing his satisfaction with the health care systems in America would be a non-verbal language that a written transcript would miss (Ridic, Pp.17). The health care professional experience in the field of health care systems in American would have impacted the response of this interview because he understands the sequence changes which have occurred in the sector. As a health care professional the lessons I can take from the interview is that time is changing and it is important to change as it changes.
