P4P programs are here to stay. These programs are pushed by private insurers and the Federal Government. According to,“SHAPING THE FUTURE OF PAY-FOR-PERFORMANCE PROGRAMS” (2005) it is critical to have the medical profession involved in the planning of the incentives for P4P programs isdeveloped. They will need to be more involved in the discussions with the insurers and employers about the P4P programs.

Abstract This paper explores how to receive an education and advance within the health informatics career. A variety of sources are combined to show the nature of the job, duties, and the salary you could expect based upon the type and location of the position. The healthcare informatics degree has been specialized over the years because of the increasing demand for credentialed applicants, but research also shows that receiving a degree in information systems and healthcare administration will cover the basic topics needed to start at entry level. Locally, the jobs available are mostly listed separately within information systems and healthcare, but there are a few exceptions where clinics want the truly educated and knowledgeable individual.

Physicians know they can help the dying and the dying know that the physicians can help them, but because of legal issues no one dares to speak of the aid in dying.

Physicians hire local community members to staff clinics and contribute to revenue for the local hospital through inpatient admissions and outpatient services (Elrich, Doeksen, & St. Clair, 2007). Local medical care is not the only thing that rural and low income urban areas in the U.S. lose without physicians: they lose out on keeping revenue from medical services within their community (Elrich, Doeksen, & St. Clair, 2007).
