The U.S. health care system is vital to Americans, not only for maintaining good health but also for contributing to a strong economy. Seven of twenty of the nation's fastest-growing occupations are in the health care industry, and those occupations are expected to provide hundreds of thousands of new jobs over the next several years.

An aging population and longer life expectancies are among the causes of increasing demand for health care and social assistance services. The U.S. Department of Labor projects these two occupations, which include jobs in public and private hospitals, nursing and residential care facilities, and individual and family services, will provide Americans with more than 4 million new jobs during the decade ending in 2016.
