In the wake of the passing of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act by Congress, the health care systems that will be in practice in North America in 2014 when the new American law takes effect will become very similar. Some key differences will still exist in the ways they function, however. The Canadian health care system is and will remain the most expansive. The health care provided in American represents the more moderate version of the three, while the Mexican system is the least inclusive. The Canadian health care system is governed by the Canada Health Care Act, passed in 1984. The health care system in Mexico is provided by the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS), or Mexican Social Security Institute, which is also responsible for managing the Mexican people’s pensions and social security payments. The IMSS was established in 1943 due to an amendment to the Mexican Constitution. The American system is currently governed by a variety of laws, although the new bill should consolidate some of the complications found at present in the American health care system, is expected solve many of the problems in the system, and address various shortfalls.
