health care industry, particularly cost-benefit analysis. It is important
that your audience understands possible challenges in the cost of health
care services as well as what impact consumers and health care reform

specific population within health care (e.g., people with diabetes, people
with mental health, etc.) and their needs.

less?

economic challenges in the health care industry.

and efficiency of the delivery of health care services?

o How do billing and reimbursement processes affect providers of
health care services as well as organizations/individuals paying for the
services?
· Analyze the changes in health care services to meet the needs of
an ever-changing population. For this bullet, select a population to
concentrate on (e.g., people with diabetes, people with mental health
etc.).
o What are the challenges of delivering health care services to your
selected population? What are the ethical implications associated with
the challenges?
o What are the new types of health care services that have evolved to
support your population?
o What impact does the increase of preventive care services have on
the health of your population?
· Analyze the drivers and barriers for health care reform.
o Currently, what role does the government play in the delivery of
health care services to consumers?
o What are the challenges and/or problems in providing/requiring
health insurance for all consumers?
