Individual Reimbursement and Pay-for-Performance Paper HCS 531 Individual Reimbursement and Pay-for-Performance Paper Reimbursement is affected by the pay-for-performance approach in many ways.It is very hard to define quality in primary care. The health care providers come to the health care industry with different variations in practice, training levels and experiences, socio-demographics, geography as well as external factors. These various issues make it hard to measure if the health care provider is giving the quality service that the entity paying want them to perform. Entities that are paying for care want to measure the services they are paying for are of high quality and if the care can be performed at a lower cost. According

Most of the people are unacquainted with health insurance, and Obama care, but it’s important that as people educate on this topic by looking into the pros and cons implementations from this perspective. These pros and cons will help you to understand all the good and bad things before you get a health insurance. For example; one of the most important things that the people need to know is what is the Obamacare program. The United Stated Government established the following phrase: “The Obama Health Care is a plan for health care reform in the US.” That plan has been presented as a new health care bill, called “the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act 2010.” ObamaCare has many benefits for low and middle income families and businesses
c. If you wanted to change coverage and services, what would you change if you could and how would you change it? A. The list of the U.S. healthcare subsystems of health insurance are Managed Care, Military, Subsystems for Special Population, Integrated Delivery, Long Term Care Delivery, and Public Health Systems. I would say the majority of my family would be Subsystems for Special Population. B. I like that the government gives the people that can’t afford much something and I dislike that at 18 they will cut you off.
When taking a look at Llyod Bitzer’s Rhetorical Situation I see several similarities on his positions compared with many modern well-known rhetoricians. Bitzer explains that rhetorical discourse comes into existence as a response to a situation and without a given situation there would only be communication. With that being said, I think it s appropriate to make my first argument on how this is still apparent in today’s world. Our current government was recently focusing very closely on health care reform, because it was (and still is) an apparent problem (the situation). When the government or the president addressed this issue they were practicing the art of rhetorical discourse by addressing and reacting to the given situation.
It impressed upon me to research other states regulations and restrictions and questions to mind such as why is each state so different. If we are all expected to live up to the same standards professionally then why are we not treated equally in all the states in the Union? A part of the current Healthcare reform should include the role of the APRN as well as how much restriction each state can place on the practice. Bravo to organizations such as MONA and the ANA who spend time and energy to stand in the gap for nurses daily. A wonderful
Emergency Department Bottleneck Proposal University of Phoenix OPS/HC 571 January 23, 2012 Middletown Hospital Bottleneck Proposal In the United States today, receiving quality health care is a challenge. Over the years the challenges in health care have been improving the public health care system, keeping cost under control, improving access and coverage, encouraging healthy behavior, improving quality, strengthening the health workforce, addressing social determinants of health, and encouraging more realistic expectations (Jonas, Knickman, & Kovner, 2008). These challenges concern many health care organizations because of what could happen if the issues are not managed properly. This proposal is to help Middletown Hospital operate efficiently and provide the best quality of care and safety to their patients. Because Middletown Hospital has been receiving a large number of complaints about long waits for care and poor service from 6:00-10:00 p.m., the chief executive officer (CEO) has authorized a Six Sigma Team to analyze root causes and provide recommendations for improvement.
The reason to question the effectiveness of the fiscal integrity of the Obama care bill. (Heritage Foundation, 2011) There are pro’s and con’s with the Obama care reformation. The cons are that one of the greatest fears of the Obama care is that they will lose the right to choose their own doctor. Another con is the medical cost and billing issues for both the patient and the doctors. Both parties are questioning who will cover the cause of health care treatment.
Dre Anderson Mr. Fallon Macroeconomics 11/2/12 Obama HealthCare Plan An ongoing problem in the United States of America today is health care. There has been many attempts to change healthcare plans and insurance so everyone can be covered and have healthcare available to them and their families. Obamas Healthcare plan is an attempt to make health care affordable for all Americans so that they have full coverage. Some believe that Obamas plan could possibly be efficient while some think it will not. Obama Healthcare expresses dramatic effects to people who already have health insurance, people who don’t have health insurance, those who can’t afford it, and older people who are on Medicare.
Barrett 1 Roland A. Barrett English 1302 Instructor: Mrs. Kelly Ellis 23 April 2012- Healthcare Reform Healthcare reform is the number one domestic policy issue in our political government of today’s time. There are two major issues in the healthcare world, and they are regular healthcare and public healthcare which the two are typically separate. Healthcare’s goal is to help improve the individual patient outcome through medical services, and public healthcare is to devote and improve health outcome in the population as a whole through health promotion and disease prevention. Also in healthcare reform evidence shows other concerning factors in dealing with healthcare, which is the rising cost of premiums, inadequate quality, and
