These taxes will be put into effect over the next 8 years, in the hopes that this new bill will pay for itself in the long run. Positive Implications of PPACA Many see PPACA as a positive step towards improving the standard and quality of health care in America. In particular, they feel that this law will make health care more affordable for all Americans, state health exchanges will give more people access to health plans, it will reduce costs, and increase overall public health.

The recommendation that I believe would do the most good toward getting more URMs into the medical field would be the one that addresses the costs and financing of health professions education. This recommendation involves the reexamination of costs and financing of health professions training with an emphasis on the reduction or elimination of many health care field training costs for those that have low-incomes or are members of a URM. First off I think that all of the other recommendations are great and would defiantly help, but when it comes right down to it our world revolves around the almighty dollar. We can do everything in the world, even beg minority’s to get into the health care field, but they won’t be able to do it if they can’t afford the education. So, making changes in costs and financing would go a long way toward removing the financial obstacle, that way the other recommendations have a much better chance of being successful.

For instance, in the standard involving the Environment of Care, the organization failed to prove that it could be a secure and the setting itself was functional. The Life Safety standard was not met due to its inadequate fire safety. The Leadership standard also was not met due to staffing insufficiencies.

The United States is making huge changes in the health care industry. The health care reform can improve the health care industry and lower the cost of health care if policies are developed with health care experts. There are many countries that have mechanisms in place that have lower the health care and improved the quality of their health care system. The United States is a leader in many areas and should be able to figure out a health care system with the P4P
The Australian government should consider significant investment in culturally sensitive Indigenous health care. Maternal health care is a social determinant for health and should be addressed in a bid to bridging the gap between Australian peoples (Evans and O’Connor, 2009, p 111). There exists new evidence suggesting an improvement in maternal and child health (Willis, Reynolds and Helen, 2008, p 12). Although significant reduction in child mortality rates have reduced in Australia, Indigenous peoples still have a higher infant mortality rate as compared to other
In conclusion, Obama Care is a health care organization implemented through the democratic administration that helps individuals have a smoother medical experience by means of preventive care services, the Summary of Budgets Committee for nutritional benefits before and after a hospital stay, emergency room insurance acceptance with no turn away, pre existing condition and grandfathered insurance. This healthcare organization has been developed to provide Americans with an improved experience for hospital stays so that each citizen will not have to endure private health care disparities that deprive the young and old with medical care that only the rich have the privileged to

Working with others to plan and implement projects to improve health and well-being. This assignment aims to demonstrate how the Specialist Community Public Health Nurse can impact on a campaign to improve the uptake of the influenza vaccination among healthcare workers. Although current UK policy recommends the vaccination of all Healthcare workers to reduce the spread of seasonal influenza and its impact on NHS services, the scheme is voluntary and uptake of the vaccine remains low. A campaign introduced in 2011 contributed to a slight rise in the uptake of the vaccine and is being run again over the winter period 2012/2013. Research however suggests that the way to gain a significant increase in uptake is to consider making vaccination mandatory.
