Answer:

Preventive care.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will choose to improve the preventive care because using preventive methods helps to save the person or individual from having a disease and also save a person from healthcare cost. Preventive care is cheap as compared to curative care due to no use of expensive medications. In preventive care, the health hazards things should be avoided in order to save yourself from the disease.
