Dashes are used instead of parentheses or commas in the sentence because of the following reasons:
-Parentheses are used to set off a participle word or words which can be omitted, but does not affect the whole thought of the sentence. In addition, parentheses could also be used to add a specific detail about the word beside it.
-Dashes, just like parentheses, are used to set additional information off. Dashes are commonly used if the words it enclosed already has a comma or commas in it, just to avoid confusion. In addition, dashes are more appropriate to use for interrupted sentences.

A. Parentheses are being used because they set off longer, less-related parenthetical asides.

Government's duty to secure and propel the interests of society incorporates the conveyance of excellent medical care. Since the market alone can't guarantee all Americans admittance to quality medical services, the public authority should save the interests of its residents by enhancing the market where there are holes and directing the market where there is failure or injustice. A definitive objective of accomplishing high caliber of care will require solid organizations among administrative, state, and nearby governments and the private area. Interpreting general standards with respect to the suitable part of government into explicit activities inside a quickly changing, decentralized conveyance framework will require the consolidated endeavors of the general population and private areas.
