Explain the government’s impact on the cost of health care.

The government plays a significant role in ensuring the implementation of the Washington Indian health care improvement Act. In 2016, an update in payment policy from all the Medicare and Medicaid services centers was done. This move made it possible for the state to shift more cost of care for the vulnerable community from the state general fund to the federal government. The access to federal funds makes it possible to have the administrative burden of this policy from the state government and increase the general effectiveness of the policy. The federal payments help the state to deliver improved health care services to the American Indians and Alaska natives (Kruse, et.al. 2022). Through this fund, it is possible to strengthen the continuity of quality care and result in the general improvement of the health of the population.
