Abstract:
Comparing healthcare delivery systems across countries provides opportunities to identify best practices, highlight systemic challenges, and promote cross-national learning. This study evaluates healthcare delivery in Ghana and the United States through a mixed-methods comparative framework. We assess infrastructure capacity, financing mechanisms, accessibility, and health outcomes. Findings demonstrate similarities in shared health goals and reliance on mixed public-private systems, yet reveal profound differences in resource allocation, disease burden, and care affordability. Lessons learned provide actionable pathways for strengthening equity, efficiency, and resilience in both settings.
