Create a PowerPoint presentation of 14-16 slides with speaking notes on the new regulations impacting the practice as a result of the Affordable Care Act.
Introduction
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA or ACA) was signed into law by President Barack Obama in 2010. The ACA attempts to increase access to care, reduce cost, and improve quality. Nearly 50 different reform initiatives were implemented between 2010 and 2017. Although primary care is a major focus of the act, these additional initiatives are focused on 10 different areas, including public health, prevention of disease, community health, and increasing revenue provisions to pay for the reform (Niles, 2021). The law has been controversial due to the mandate that all Americans must purchase health insurance.
The U.S. government plays a significant role in the operation of the country's health care system. Quality, access, funding, education, and preventative services are all influenced by the U.S. government (Niles, 2021), and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has further increased the role and involvement of the government in health care. All health care administrators must be knowledgeable on the role of the government.
Numerous governmental organizations exist, such as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Office of the Surgeon General to name a few. Each organization exists for a specific purpose and has a specific mission. Your role as an administrator will be to understand the scope of these agencies and to help your organization meet or exceed the governmental mandates imposed by each.

Unintended Consequences of Health Care ReformThe PPACA of .docx
Unintended Consequences of Health Care Reform
The PPACA of 2010 fostered new provisions for health care and the structure of health care delivery. The individual mandate to obtain insurance is one provocative provision. While this provision attempts to increase access to health care, it raises questions on how the existing system could sustain the potentially large influx of newly insured individuals.
Another provision calls for new models of health care provider organizations to ensure delivery efficiency and continuity of care. In this week’s media presentation, Dr. Kathleen White discusses the accountable care organization, which comprises a group of providers coordinating care across a variety of institutional settings. Yet becoming an accountable care organization may present a number of challenges.
This week’s Discussion builds on Week 1, continuing the examination of those societal and organizational contexts that influence health care reform. The unintended consequences of reform policy on the health care system are also considered.
To prepare:
Review this week’s media presentation and the other Learning Resources focusing on how reform may lead to improved quality, greater access, and reduced cost of care. Also think about the unintended consequences that may arise as a result.
Consider the information presented about the individual mandate and accountable care organizations. What are some questions or concerns you might have regarding the individual mandate? What are the pros and cons associated with becoming an accountable care organization?
With posting instructions in mind, select either the individual mandate or accountable care organizations as the focus of your Discussion this week.

Scenario
The United States continues to experience challenges with respect to health reform. There is considerable agreement on the need for health reform; however, there is an appreciable divide with respect to how to best achieve reform. Discussions on strategies for reform include a repeal of current legislation (the ACA), the implementation of a universal plan, and various “fixes” to the ACA.
Many would suggest that a repeal of the current system would be most appropriate, while others support efforts to “fix” the current ACA. The health organization you work for has asked you to develop a comprehensive proposal for healthcare reform.
The U.S. expends more of its Gross Domestic Product on healthcare than any other developed nation. However, the superior amount of spending has not resulted in superior outcomes when compared to other countries. In addition to higher costs, the U.S. is the only developed country that does not offer universal health to its citizens. There has been a significant amount of discourse with respect to the pros and cons of universal coverage. Those who oppose universal coverage often refer to the Canadian, single-payer system and its challenges, such as high tax liabilities for citizens, its long wait times, and the perception of the single payer system as socialized medicine. However, those in favor of universal coverage argue that the single payer system is not socialized medicine and its costs relative to the current system in the U.S. is more cost effective. Moreover, the single payer system is only one form of universal coverage. Countries that consistently rank high in terms of positive health outcomes often employ a multi-payer universal system as opposed to a single-payer system.
Instructions
You will analyze the current literature on the health system in the U.S. Your final project will include a paper, a voiceover PowerPoint presentation, and an infographic of your proposed solution. Possible solutions include a single payer universal plan, a multi-payer universal plan, a potential enhancement to the ACA such as adding a public option, Medicare for all, or a complete repeal of the current law.

Health Care Reform: Overview
When it comes to healthcare in America, we seem to believe that more is better--but does more healthcare result in better health? As a nation, we spend more on healthcare per person than any European country, yet our health outcomes are worse. The PBS documentary, Money and Medicine was aired in 2012, and addresses one of the key issues of healthcare reform--the cost of health care. Watch the trailer below, or the entire episode here: http://video.pbs.org/video/2283573727/

The Affordable Care Act
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), passed in 2010, is a collection of laws that were created to reform health insurance and healthcare.
The ACA significantly impacts nurses both personally and professionally. Bedside nurses are impacted by organizational changes that affect patient care, and may be providing information and resources to patients and caregivers about the ACA. However, as Hynds, Hatch and Samuels (2014) noted, nurses indicate they need more knowledge to understand the ACA policy implications of their practice.
Now, you can either read the 974 pages of the law itself, or you can watch this short, animated video produced by the Kaiser Family Foundation, and visit the helpful online resources below:

The White House Issue: Health reforms
The Health Care Reforms are the best obsession for the United States, Majorly most of the American citizens who were responsible for originating the improvement found it helpful. Back in the year 2011, a countrywide crackdown was conducted as a way to oppose the frauds that were becoming a health concern, and the federal administration recovered almost $ 4.1 billion. The Health Care Improvement for capturing the healthcare frauds and scams allowed President Obama’s policy to enhance on strict penalties like compensation and fines. By providing the United States citizens with Patient Protection as well as, ACA (Affordable Care Act) was the ultimate presidential success for President Barack Obama (.whitehouse., 2014).
The public policy
As most of the leaders decided to adopt a firm stand with the many important issues within the American State, the essential point was the definition of the improvement of the Health Care in the United States by President Barack Obama and when discussing the fitness and care reform a lot of issues are put on focus.
The public policies are categorized into four groups which are the regulatory policy, the distributive policy, the redistributive policy and lastly the constituent policy. Every issue in the White House is organized it the way it is related to any of the four types of public systems (NCBI, 2016). The financial regime faces most of the significant issues, and many may need to be in a position to determine the problems which are related to funding system because some of these issues affect some of the American citizens.
Distributive policy as mentioned above, it is a policy that focuses on supporting the selected issues; the strategy that is behind the distributive health care is the local understanding and having a flexible organizational design. The idea of distribution is quite broad as it classifies distributive policy action towards including all the public processes that are responsible for developing as well as providing equitable access to the resources. In regards to the health issues, this may have financial aid for assisting the excluded to have access to the healthcare. Also, across funding aid to assist in the inside operations of the health institutions such as the combination of threats which enhances the inclusion of reasonably inadequate health services. Also, the appointment systems facilitate the secondary concern for the needy to access health services (Mackintosh, 2013). It also reduces the shifts regarding the fitness care regime in processes that will be able to satisfy and offer the proper access to those who are deprived by supporting the distributive promises that the government has made and having full access to healthcare services. In this kind of shift, the significant disadvantage is ...

Medicaid is a medical assistance program developed specifically for low income individuals of any age, unlike Medicare, which is designed for those over 65 and have no income requirements (“Difference between Medicare and Medicaid”, n.d.). When health care policies are change, they affect programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. For example, when the ACA (Affordable Care Act) was implemented, it led to an increase of enrollment as it made the process easier and reached more individuals and it expanded Medicaid eligibility to low-income adults (Wachino, Artiga & Rudowitz, 2014).
In the state of Pennsylvania, a Medicaid policy that I would amend would be the Healthy PA policy, which was a Medicaid expansion that included drug and alcohol services (IRETA, 2015). The issue is the length of time it takes for someone to be admitted into a program. Whether it’s getting into an inpatient or outpatient program, the process needs to be expedited and more streamlined. Many who are suffering from substance abuse disorders struggle with finally getting themselves into a program and delaying the process could result in someone hesitating and deciding not to move forward with treatment that is crucial (IRETA, 2015).
In Pennsylvania, stakeholders include a steering committee, which is made up of hospitals, health care providers, consumers, foundations and academic institutions (“HIP”, 2019). This committee comes up with ways to improve population health and control health cost including Medicaid and Medicare. They developed a plan for heathcare delivery that will improve the quality of life for everyone, without limitations on income or background (“HIP”, 2019). This committee has 5 work groups that develop implementation plans for the goals that were developed by the committee and focus on specific aspects such as payment, price and quality transparency, population health, healthcare transformation and health information technology (“HIP”, 2019).

IHP 501 Final Project One Guidelines and Rubric
Country Profile
Overview
As a healthcare professional driven to advocacy, you must be aware of disparities of healthcare systems within and across borders. This course has prepared you
to critically analyze a variety of health issues in countries around the world and to assess the role healthcare professionals and institutions or organizations play
in both the delivery and improvement (or detriment) of a system. Ultimately, as an advocate for population health and promotion of service delivery, you will
craft an analysis of health issues that will lead you to make recommendations on how to effect positive change regarding healthcare access, equity, and
outcomes in a country.
Final Project One for this course is the creation of a country profile that provides a detailed assessment of the chosen population and its healthcare system. The
final product represents an authentic demonstration of competency because by exploring healthcare across borders to better understand disparities and the
impacts of economics, culture, and social factors on population health, you will gain a global view of healthcare necessary for impactful advocacy. The project is
divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These
milestones will be submitted in Modules Two and Four. The final product will be submitted in Module Six.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Assess the impact of economic, social, and cultural factors on communities and healthcare organizations in the United States and internationally
Determine the role and influence of key international organizations and stakeholders in promoting global health, service delivery, and healthcare policy
Analyze data from global and local health organizations for informing health initiative recommendations
Prompt
For this project, choose a country (other than the United States) and assess its population health and healthcare system. Your country profile should address the
impacts of economics, culture, and social factors on population health. You will choose three areas of health study to examine in detail for your country. These
areas must be approved by your instructor.

Scenario
The United States continues to experience challenges with respect to health reform. There is considerable agreement on the need for health reform; however, there is an appreciable divide with respect to how to best achieve reform. Discussions on strategies for reform include a repeal of current legislation (the ACA), the implementation of a universal plan, and various “fixes” to the ACA.
Many would suggest that a repeal of the current system would be most appropriate, while others support efforts to “fix” the current ACA. The health organization you work for has asked you to develop a comprehensive proposal for healthcare reform.
The U.S. expends more of its Gross Domestic Product on healthcare than any other developed nation. However, the superior amount of spending has not resulted in superior outcomes when compared to other countries. In addition to higher costs, the U.S. is the only developed country that does not offer universal health to its citizens. There has been a significant amount of discourse with respect to the pros and cons of universal coverage. Those who oppose universal coverage often refer to the Canadian, single-payer system and its challenges, such as high tax liabilities for citizens, its long wait times, and the perception of the single payer system as socialized medicine. However, those in favor of universal coverage argue that the single payer system is not socialized medicine and its costs relative to the current system in the U.S. is more cost effective. Moreover, the single payer system is only one form of universal coverage. Countries that consistently rank high in terms of positive health outcomes often employ a multi-payer universal system as opposed to a single-payer system.
Instructions
You will analyze the current literature on the health system in the U.S. Your final project will include a paper, a voiceover PowerPoint presentation, and an infographic of your proposed solution. Possible solutions include a single payer universal plan, a multi-payer universal plan, a potential enhancement to the ACA such as adding a public option, Medicare for all, or a complete repeal of the current law.

Health Care Reform: Overview
When it comes to healthcare in America, we seem to believe that more is better--but does more healthcare result in better health? As a nation, we spend more on healthcare per person than any European country, yet our health outcomes are worse. The PBS documentary, Money and Medicine was aired in 2012, and addresses one of the key issues of healthcare reform--the cost of health care. Watch the trailer below, or the entire episode here: http://video.pbs.org/video/2283573727/

The Affordable Care Act
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), passed in 2010, is a collection of laws that were created to reform health insurance and healthcare.
The ACA significantly impacts nurses both personally and professionally. Bedside nurses are impacted by organizational changes that affect patient care, and may be providing information and resources to patients and caregivers about the ACA. However, as Hynds, Hatch and Samuels (2014) noted, nurses indicate they need more knowledge to understand the ACA policy implications of their practice.
Now, you can either read the 974 pages of the law itself, or you can watch this short, animated video produced by the Kaiser Family Foundation, and visit the helpful online resources below:

Medicaid is a medical assistance program developed specifically for low income individuals of any age, unlike Medicare, which is designed for those over 65 and have no income requirements (“Difference between Medicare and Medicaid”, n.d.). When health care policies are change, they affect programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. For example, when the ACA (Affordable Care Act) was implemented, it led to an increase of enrollment as it made the process easier and reached more individuals and it expanded Medicaid eligibility to low-income adults (Wachino, Artiga & Rudowitz, 2014).
In the state of Pennsylvania, a Medicaid policy that I would amend would be the Healthy PA policy, which was a Medicaid expansion that included drug and alcohol services (IRETA, 2015). The issue is the length of time it takes for someone to be admitted into a program. Whether it’s getting into an inpatient or outpatient program, the process needs to be expedited and more streamlined. Many who are suffering from substance abuse disorders struggle with finally getting themselves into a program and delaying the process could result in someone hesitating and deciding not to move forward with treatment that is crucial (IRETA, 2015).
In Pennsylvania, stakeholders include a steering committee, which is made up of hospitals, health care providers, consumers, foundations and academic institutions (“HIP”, 2019). This committee comes up with ways to improve population health and control health cost including Medicaid and Medicare. They developed a plan for heathcare delivery that will improve the quality of life for everyone, without limitations on income or background (“HIP”, 2019). This committee has 5 work groups that develop implementation plans for the goals that were developed by the committee and focus on specific aspects such as payment, price and quality transparency, population health, healthcare transformation and health information technology (“HIP”, 2019).

IHP 501 Final Project One Guidelines and Rubric
Country Profile
Overview
As a healthcare professional driven to advocacy, you must be aware of disparities of healthcare systems within and across borders. This course has prepared you
to critically analyze a variety of health issues in countries around the world and to assess the role healthcare professionals and institutions or organizations play
in both the delivery and improvement (or detriment) of a system. Ultimately, as an advocate for population health and promotion of service delivery, you will
craft an analysis of health issues that will lead you to make recommendations on how to effect positive change regarding healthcare access, equity, and
outcomes in a country.
Final Project One for this course is the creation of a country profile that provides a detailed assessment of the chosen population and its healthcare system. The
final product represents an authentic demonstration of competency because by exploring healthcare across borders to better understand disparities and the
impacts of economics, culture, and social factors on population health, you will gain a global view of healthcare necessary for impactful advocacy. The project is
divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These
milestones will be submitted in Modules Two and Four. The final product will be submitted in Module Six.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Assess the impact of economic, social, and cultural factors on communities and healthcare organizations in the United States and internationally
Determine the role and influence of key international organizations and stakeholders in promoting global health, service delivery, and healthcare policy
Analyze data from global and local health organizations for informing health initiative recommendations
Prompt
For this project, choose a country (other than the United States) and assess its population health and healthcare system. Your country profile should address the
impacts of economics, culture, and social factors on population health. You will choose three areas of health study to examine in detail for your country. These
areas must be approved by your instructor.
2
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Introduction
A. State the purpose of the country profile and explain why you chose to write about this country in particular.
B. Identify appropriate details needed for an analysis of the state of healthcare in your chosen country. Your discussion should include but is not
limited to population, type of government and the state of governmental affairs, geographic location, and climate.
II. General State of Healthcare

1. A vulnerability refers to a
known
weakness of an asset (resource) that can be exploited by one or more attackers. In other words, it is a known issue that allows an attack to succeed.
For example, when a team member resigns and you forget to disable their access to external accounts, change logins, or remove their names from company credit cards, this leaves your business open to both intentional and unintentional threats. However, most vulnerabilities are exploited by automated attackers and not a human typing on the other side of the network.
Testing for vulnerabilities is critical to ensuring the continued security of your systems. Identify the weak points. Discuss at least four questions to ask when determining your security vulnerabilities.
