The U.S. Health Care Economy

Reducing the Price of Health Care
The focus in health care reform is cost control in light of annual double-digit inflation since the late 1990s and the consumption of nearly 17% of the gross domestic product (GDP) in 2009 (more than any other country in the world). The debate is over how to reduce the rate of spending for health care while preserving quality and access to care for patients. Research at least 2 methods of reducing the percentage of the GDP spent on health care. You will need to be able to describe how you would do this in specific terms. This can be a number of approaches, such as the following:
Completely dismantle the current system and start over—A monumental task
Revise the current payment system to reflect current economic constraints
Cut Medicare and Medicaid
Insurance reform
National health insurance based on the Massachusetts Model
Malpractice reform
Legislation such as the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003, the Affordable Care Act (2010), and others
Provide the following elements in your paper:
Describe the model you are supporting to best control costs without compromising the quality and access to health care, and explain how the model works.
Analyze the method that you are supporting, detailing the strengths and weaknesses from all stakeholder group (e.g., patient, provider, and third-party payer) perspectives.
Provide an example of the model in real time or as a scenario.
Summarize the anticipated results in terms of costs and benefits.

The solar system

/in /by

We’re going to do a concept map of the solar system here’s how you do that.

  1. First, get an 11×17 piece of paper. If you don’t have a piece that big you can make one by taping two 8.5×11 (that’s normal size) pieces together.
  2. Draw the Sun, the 8 planets and the asteroid belt as much to scale as possible (in terms of size and distance from the Sun) on the piece of paper.

Note: you CANNOT draw the solar system to scale and still expect it to be visible. But as you draw think about which planets are larger, which are smaller, which are tightly spaced and which are far from each other. And draw so that those relationships are visible.

  1. Now labeling, label everything you can possibly think of about each planet. We want this concept map to include everything any reasonable person could want to know about the solar system. Some things to think about.

Name
Period of rotation
Period of revolution
Jovian or terrestrial?
Distance from the sun
Atmosphere?
Size
Moons?
Rings?

  1. Anything interesting about that particular planet

Large volcanoes
Big red spots
Orbits on its side
Runaway greenhouse atmosphere
I’m not saying label it with these things, I’m saying label it with every possible thing you can think of. This should help you see and make sense of patterns in the solar system. Feel free to be creative, get some colored pencils and do it in color if you want. Draw little spaceships and aliens if you want. Have all the fun you want with it. The important thing is to get the information on there so you’ve worked with it, you can see it and your brain can assimilate it. (resistance is futile)

Fictitious competitive risks

/in /by

Select three fictitious competitive risks that you believe would be of concern in the acquisition of a new product. You should provide a paragraph for each risk,

establishing what the threat or risk is, or could be that would cause the real or potential risk to occur. You should also explain where you would look for the data to perform the analytics-based assessment of the risk.

You should then provide your early views on the risk impact and the likelihood that it could occur. This should be followed by a few paragraphs describing how you will interact with your team and senior managers to complete the risk assessment.

The total written assignment should be no more that two double spaced pages to be submitted in Word.

apa format, we dont need many sources, just think of a company that need a new product, and give three fictitous threats, and explain them.
