  文章正文

  53. “The term ‘user-friendly’ is usually applied to the trouble-free way that computer software moves people from screen to screen, function to function. However, the term can also refer to a government office, a library, public transportation, or anything designed to provide information or services in an easy, friendly way. Just as all societies have many striking examples of user-friendly services, so do they abound in examples of user-unfriendly systems.” Identify a system or service that you have found to be either “user-friendly” or “user-unfriendly.”

  Discuss, from the user’s perspective, in what way the system either is or is not easy to use and explain the consequences or effect of such a system.

  If one focuses on systems such as financial services and telecommunications, where emerging technologies have the greatest impact, one sees increasing user-friendliness. However, in other systems—public and private alike—inefficiencies, roadblocks (n. 路障,问题,困难,难题,难关,障碍), and other “unfriendly” features still abound. One such example is the U.S. health-care delivery system.

  To a large extent, the user-unfriendly nature of health-care delivery stems from its close tie to the insurance industry. Service providers and suppliers inflate prices, knowing that insurance companies can well afford to pay by passing on inflated costs to the insured. Hospital patients are often discharged prematurely merely because insurance fails to cover in-patient care beyond a certain amount or duration. In the extreme (极端,非常,达于极点), patients are sometimes falsely informed that they are well or cured, just so that the facility can make room for insured patients. Insurance providers reject claims and coverage intentionally and in bad faith (不诚实;不打算履行诺言的) when the insured has suffered or is statistically likely to suffer from a terminal (approaching or close to death: being in the final stages of a fatal disease *a terminal patient*) or other long-term—and costly—illness. Insurance companies also impose extreme coverage exceptions for pre-existing conditions. Both tactics are designed, of course, to maximize insurance company profits at the expense of the system’s user. Finally, new medical technologies that provide more effective diagnosis and treatment are often accessible only to the select (adj.精选的:exclusively or fastidiously chosen often with regard to social, economic, or cultural characteristics) few who can afford the most comprehensive insurance coverage.

  The consequences of these user-unfriendly features can be grave indeed for the individual, since this system relates directly to a person’s physical wellbeing and very life. For example, when a claim or coverage is wrongfully denied, lacking financial resources to enforce their rights, an individual customer has little practical recourse. The end result is to render health care inaccessible to the very individuals who need it most. These user-unfriendly features can be deleterious on a societal scale as well. An unhealthy populace is an unproductive one. Also, increased health-care costs place an undue burden on bread-winning (breadwinner: 养家活口的人, 负担家计的人) adults who feel the squeeze (a financial pressure caused by narrowing margins or by shortages) of caring for aging parents and for children. Finally, these features foster a pervasive distrust of government, big business, and bureaucracy.

  In sum, today’s “point-and-click (点击)” paradigm inaccurately portrays the actual functionality of many systems, including our health-care delivery system, which is well-entrenched in self-interest and insensitivity to the needs of its users.
