As a result, we have our own unique system that has evolved drastically over the past century into something that is both loved and hated by its citizens.<\/p>\n
Whichever end of the spectrum you lean toward, there\u2019s no doubt about it: the history of medicine and organized healthcare in America is a long and winding road. How we’ve gotten to where we are today is quite a story, so let\u2019s dive in…<\/p>\n
The History of Medicine and Organized Healthcare: From the 1700\u2019s to Now
\nThe 1700\u2019s: Colonial Times
\nMedicine was fairly rudimentary for the first few generations of colonists who landed in the new world, primarily because very few upper-class physicians emigrated to the colonies. Women played a major role in administering care in these early days, most especially when it came to childbirth.<\/p>\n
Mortality in those early days was extremely high, most notably for infants and small children. Malaria was particularly brutal, as was diphtheria and yellow fever. Most of the sick were treated with folk remedies, though smallpox inoculation was introduced earn-on (long before it was embraced in Europe.) In these early days, there was virtually no government regulation or attention paid to public health.<\/p>\n
The first medical society was formed in Boston in 1735. Fifteen years later, in 1750, the first general hospital was established in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n
In 1765, the Medical College of Philadelphia was founded. Two years later, the medical department of King’s College was established in New York and in 1770, they awarded the first American M.D. degree.\u00a0[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Call to Action” _builder_version=”4.18.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#eaddda” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_module=”252″ saved_tabs=”all” collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”8%|4%|4%||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.1″ _module_preset=”b327cbe4-b1d5-4b66-ad37-40c8f2f061ba” header_2_font=”Anton|||on|||||” header_2_text_color=”#8c9d85″ header_2_font_size=”70px” header_2_line_height=”1.15em” header_2_font_size_tablet=”32px” header_2_font_size_phone=”20px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
