The purpose of this assignment is for students to: develop a genogram that provides an effective tool for gathering family data, provide a visual portrayal of a patient’s family health history as the history pertains to the physical exam, provide healthcare providers with a clearer picture of a patient’s non-modifiable risk factors, and discuss their understanding of the patient’s genomic profile and the relationship to current health concerns. Overview A genogram is a visual and written representation of a history and physical. This genogram will be based on information obtained from the Shadow Health patient named Tina. As you are completing the Shadow Health: Health History assignment (see below), you will be able to ask Tina questions in order to gather information for the genogram. Consult Chapter 26, the Family History section and Figure 26-3, in the text for an example. Directions Develop a three-generation family medical tree for the Shadow Health patient Tina. The three generations must include the patient, parents, and grandparents in order to receive full credit. Identify family members, ages, relationships, and significant health history with identification of risk factors. Identify deceased, divorced, or estranged family members and ages and causes of death of family members. Using the drawing tools in MS Word™, Excel™, or PowerPoint™, and standardized symbols and terminology, create a diagram of a family medical health tree. Include a written narrative with your diagram describing the family’s health history and the risk factors you identified. Follow APA guidelines for the narrative portion of the assignment and reference citations. Submit your completed assignment using the submission link.

Incarcerated people
Health coverage for incarcerated people
If you’re incarcerated, some special rules apply to your health care options.
Incarceration and the Marketplace
For purposes of the Marketplace, “incarcerated” means serving a term in prison or jail.
• Incarceration doesn’t mean living at home or in a residential facility under supervision of the criminal justice system, or living there voluntarily. In other words, incarceration doesn’t include being on probation, parole, or home confinement.
• You’re not considered incarcerated if you’re in jail or prison pending disposition of charges—in other words, being held but not convicted of a crime.
If you’re incarcerated, you can’t use the Marketplace to buy a private insurance plan. But after you’re released you can.
The Marketplace after release from incarceration
When you apply for health coverage after being released from incarceration, you may qualify for lower costs on monthly premiums and out-of-pocket costs. This will depend on your household size and income during the year you’re seeking coverage.
After you’re released, you have a 60-day Special Enrollment Period to sign up for private health coverage. During this time, you can enroll in private health insurance even if it’s outside the Marketplace open enrollment period.
After this 60-day Special Enrollment Period, you can’t buy private health insurance until the next Marketplace open enrollment period (unless you qualify for another Special Enrollment Period).
Incarcerated people and the fee for being uninsured
Because you aren’t eligible to buy private health insurance through the Marketplace while in prison or jail, you don’t have to pay the penalty that some others without insurance must pay.
After you’re released, you must either have health coverage, pay the fee, or get an exemption.
If you’re incarcerated pending disposition of charges
If you’re in jail or prison but haven’t been convicted of a crime, you may use the Marketplace to buy a private health insurance plan. This assumes you are otherwise eligible to get coverage through the Marketplace.
Incarceration and Medicaid
If you’re incarcerated you can use the Marketplace to apply for Medicaid coverage in your state. Medicaid won’t pay for your medical care while you’re in prison or jail. But if you enroll in Medicaid while you’re incarcerated you may be able to get needed care more quickly after you’re released.
There are 3 ways to apply for Medicaid:
• Online, at either HealthCare.gov or your state’s Marketplace website. (Get a checklist that will help you gather needed information before you apply (PDF).)
• With a Marketplace paper application (PDF) that you fill out and mail in.
• Directly through your state Medicaid office. Use the “Get state information” dropdown menu on this Medicaid page to get contact information for your state Medicaid office.
State Medicaid policies and incarceration
A number of state Medicaid policies may influence your decision to apply for Medicaid while in jail or prison. These include:
• Whether your state has decided to expand Medicaid coverage to all adults with incomes up to 138% of the federal poverty level
• Whether incarcerated people can stay enrolled while in prison or jail. Remember that enrolling in Medicaid while incarcerated doesn’t allow Medicaid to pay the cost of your care while in prison or jail. But it may help you get needed care more quickly after you’re released.

Describe an implementation plan for the intervention – how will you make sure the intervention is put into place? What factors might influence your ability to implement the program?

Intervention or Program Design & Pitch (39 points):

◦For the intervention design, you are to develop a comprehensive behavior change intervention (group or individual) for a commonly found disease (diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, etc.) and a mental health disorder (depression, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, etc.) that can be applied in a clinical setting. Identify the clinic or hospital setting (e.g., family practice, in-patient clinic, internal medicine, etc.) in which the proposed intervention will take place. Be sure to provide an overview of the characteristics of the location and how these might affect implementation (positively or negatively) of your proposed intervention. Ideally the clinical setting will represent a current or potential place of employment. (1-2 pages) (5 points)

•Identify a specific target population based on demographic considerations (e.g., children, older adults, age 65+; Middle-aged Latino females, etc.) and the targeted disease or mental health outcome (e.g., heart disease, arthritis, depression, etc.) and provide the rationale for intervening on this population. The rationale should provide an overview of the relationship between how the behavioral modification will reduce the patient’s symptomology and increase overall functionality. Give reason as to why the specified target population is in need of a behavioral intervention. For example, are they at high risk of heart attack, stroke, suicide, etc.? Explain how being at higher risk for your chosen disease could be mitigated by changes in behavior. Justify the need for the intervention. (1-3 pages) (5 points)

•Describe how you will identify potential participants in your program? Who will be eligible? How will you market your program to potential participants? (1-2 pages) (5 points)

•Describe behavior change intervention that will address the disease issue that is being targeted in detail. (5-8 pages) (12 points)

•Briefly describe how your behavioral health interventions will be operationalized in the medical setting you have selected.

•Describe the learning strategies and activities that will be used in the intervention. Include at least 3 examples.

•Describe an implementation plan for the intervention – how will you make sure the intervention is put into place? What factors might influence your ability to implement the program?

•Describe how the effectiveness of behavior modification will be measured on the disease or mental health disorder that is being targeted.

•Conclusion and Summary: Explain why the medical community would have interest in the behavior modification you have chosen. Summarize your chosen intervention and the benefits it provides the patients and medical community (1-2 pages) (3 points).

Examine the data from the medical center described in the document.

Developing Financial Statements
Note: The Instructor will post the document for this Assignment by Day 1 of Week 7.
All organizations, including those in the health care industry, need to make money to be profitable and survive. Financial statements, such as balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and cash flow statements summarize an organization’s profitability and overall financial status. For this Assignment, you practice developing three key financial statements using data from a medical center.
To prepare for this Assignment:
Review the Week 7 Assignment document provided to you by the Instructor. Examine the data from the medical center described in the document. Reflect on how you will use this data to develop a balance sheet, profit and loss statement (statement of operations), and cash flow statement (statement of changes in net assets). Refer to the course text for additional guidance.
Note: This Assignment will be graded using this rubric: Document: Week 7 Assignment Rubric (Word document)
The Assignment:
Complete a balance sheet, profit and loss statement (statement of operations), and cash flow statement (statement of changes in net assets) using the “Week 7 Financial Statement Excel Template”.
