Our state’s healthcare system needs to be restructured.
The quality of care in Hawaii has been declining for years, and now the cost of providing it is outstripping revenue from taxes and other sources by $200 million per year. This means that we have a gap between what our residents pay for their medical coverage and what they receive in return—and it’s growing yearly. The solution isn’t complicated: We need to improve our system so that more people can access better health care regardless of where they live or how much money they make (or don’t).
This will require reform on multiple levels—from reducing waste in hospitals through greater efficiency; shifting resources away from expensive specialty drugs toward cheaper generic versions; improving coordination between primary care providers like physicians’ offices and specialists like dentists; improving communication between patients’ doctors, so they know precisely where their patients stand at any given moment during treatment process; etcetera…
Our state’s need for a 1,000-bed hospital is an underserved area of our healthcare system.
Hawaii’s population is over 1.4 million people, and its economy relies on tourism. We have many elderly residents who need to be cared for by healthcare providers. The elderly makeup about 20% of our population, meaning we need more homes for them to live in and more nursing home beds to stay in when they get older or are disabled.
We also have a lot of kids—about 20% of our total population—and, therefore, many children’s hospitals; these facilities often treat children who require long-term treatment due to chronic diseases such as asthma or cancer (for example).
Our state’s population has a severe lack of primary care physicians.
You may have never heard of primary care physicians, but they are vital to health care. A primary care physician serves as the first point of contact for patients and can help them understand their symptoms, prevent disease, treat illness, manage chronic conditions and prevent them from becoming severe or life-threatening.
Primary care physicians are also called general practitioners (GPs) because they perform all aspects of medicine. They diagnose illnesses through physical exams and tests such as blood tests; prescribe medications if necessary; give vaccinations; provide essential preventive medicine such as immunizations against influenza viruses (the flu); manage chronic diseases like diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2), hypertension/high blood pressure (HTN/HBP), heart disease including heart failure – HFHSF), asthma control through bronchodilators/anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs such as ibuprofen tablets along with corticosteroids creams corticosteroid inhalers .”
There are too many empty nursing homes in our state.
The state needs to do more if you’re looking for a nursing home in Hawaii. Our state has too many empty nursing homes, and we must ensure they get occupied again. We can do this best by increasing funding for them to operate more efficiently and effectively.
Drug costs are escalating, and too few people can afford them.

Reducing the gap between rich and poor individuals would reduce the need for government assistance.
While the gap between rich and poor individuals is a problem in Hawaii and the United States, one solution would be for people to work harder. If everyone worked harder, then there would be less need for government assistance.
If you want to reduce your poverty level, try working at least three jobs instead of just one or two. This means you will have more money in your pocket every month, which means you can buy food from supermarkets or restaurants, etc.!
There are places you can help improve your community.
You can also help improve your community by volunteering at a local nonprofit. The more time you spend volunteering, your community will be better off.
