<h3>What has caused rising health care costs in the USA?</h3>
  • Healthcare expenditures have increased as a result of rising premiums, greater deductibles and copays, and skyrocketing prescription drug costs.
  • The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services1 estimate that by 2021, healthcare spending will have risen to $4.3 trillion. Because they have significant power over which medications are sold on the market, how they are promoted, and what prices they are charged, pharmaceutical corporations have a significant role in escalating health care expenditures.

= $1,980,000/$20,710,000 * 100

= 9.6%

Asset turnover = Sales/Total Assets

= $20,710,000/$9,900,000 = 2.1 times
