Ghana: Health Care System In March 1957 the Republic of Ghana was the first African country to achieve its independence from the United Kingdom. The first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, commissioned health care facilities to care for indigenous people of Ghana. The health system was fully funded by state revenue; however, the lack of accessible health facilities in rural areas led to poor health outcomes (increase in communicable and non-communicable diseases, high infant and child mortality rates, etc.). The health system eventually experienced a budget crisis and, consequently, moved towards a cash system in which the patient pays for care and medication. Health Care System There are four main categories of health delivery systems in Ghana: public, private for-profit, private not-for-profit, and traditional systems. There has been a mandate since 1995 to integrate traditional and mainstream medicine. The health care system in Ghana is divided into three administrative levels: national, regional, and district levels. Additionally, there are several funding sources for the health system in place, however, it is grossly inadequate for achieving the goal of providing access to even basic health care for citizens throughout the country. Watch the video, Dying patients in Search of Basic Healthcare in Ghana (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. that reveals the constraints and challenges in delivering health care in Ghana. Briefly summarize the key things you learned about the constraints and challenges. How do you think Ghana can tackle these constraints and challenges?

Week Five Standard Guidance
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) gained independence from Belgium in 1960. Within a few weeks of independence, the country was plagued with personal and ethnic rivalries. After many years of civil war and unrest, the DRC finally passed a new constitution on February 18, 2006, and elected its own government, which offered the first opportunity for a stable democracy. The new government has established the following goals to meet the needs of its citizens:
· Reduce child mortality
· Combat HIV/AIDS rate, malaria, and other infectious diseases
· Improve maternal health
· Reduce incidence of tuberculosis
The Democratic Republic of Congo has vast quantities of natural resources and the potential to provide financial stability through mining minerals (diamonds, copper, cobalt, and gold). However, the DRC is a severely indebted country with limited income due to years of war and mismanagement. Consequently, the Democratic Republic of Congo lacks the financial resources to fund the health care system at adequate levels.
Health Care System
The Ministry of Health (MOH) is a public health system based on the historical Belgian colonial public health system. The MOH is a policy and oversight organization comprised of subordinate organizations:
· Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM)
· Institute of Biomedical Research (Institut National de Recherché Biomédicale, or INRB)
· Kinshasa School of Public Health (KSPH)
The KSPH trains physicians in public health and staffs the public health infrastructure composed of Health Zones. By 2001 the DRC reported there were three tertiary hospitals, eleven provincial hospitals, 306 general hospitals, and approximately 6,000 health centers across the country. Contrary to the common definition of tertiary hospital (a major hospital that provides a full complement of specialized services), a tertiary hospital in the DRC only provides rehabilitative care. While there are private hospitals and clinics in the DRC, they are reserved for individuals with the financial means to pay for services provided.
The health system of the Democratic Republic of Congo is funded from three sources: the state budget (i.e., taxes), external contributions (private and charitable contributions), and fee for service payments. According to a report by Doctors without Borders (20 ...
National health-insuraqnce-scheme-in-nigeria1
The National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) in Nigeria was established in 1999 to provide universal health care coverage. It aims to ensure all Nigerians have access to good health services, protect families from high medical costs, and ensure equitable distribution of health costs among income groups. The NHIS operates different programs to cover formal sector employees, informal workers, vulnerable groups, and others. It reimburses healthcare providers using capitation, fee-for-service, per diem, or case payment methods. The goal is for all Nigerians to be enrolled to improve health outcomes and reduce financial barriers to care.

Health financing Presentation.pdf
This document lists the health financing mechanisms of the UK, USA, Peru, Kenya, and Sri Lanka. It provides details on:
- Who pays for healthcare in each country through taxes, insurance, or out-of-pocket payments. Funds are often pooled.
- Which population groups are covered or left behind by different financing systems in each country. Coverage of the poor and informal sectors varies.
- The services included in benefit packages, which range from primary to tertiary care depending on the country.
- The extent of financial protection, with out-of-pocket payments threatening household budgets in some countries. Pooled funding and universal coverage provide greater protection in others.

The document discusses budget allocation to Uganda's health sector and its impact on human rights. It notes that budget allocation to health has remained between 7-9% despite a 2001 pledge to allocate 15%, leading to shortages of medicine and poor health facilities. This is illustrated by a case where a girl was denied free rabies medicine due to the high cost, as medicine funding has not increased with population growth. The document argues that civil society must advocate for increased health sector budgeting to fulfill rights to health and prevent future human rights violations from limited resources. It calls for civil society to take a "genius" approach and budget advocacy, rather than just addressing problems, to enact permanent change.
Health systems around the world - Memoona Arshad
More people have gained access to essential health services such as immunization, HIV antiretroviral care, family planning, and malaria-prevention bed nets in the last decade. This is promising news, but development has been uneven: there are significant differences in service availability not only between countries, but also within them. Half the world's population can't afford the care it needs to stay safe on any given day.

Finance for Development
This document discusses financing primary health care in Cameroon. It notes that currently, household health financing is mostly done through out-of-pocket payments, which can lead to catastrophic health expenditures and push households into poverty. While Cameroon has social health insurance and community-based insurance programs, coverage remains low, with 62% of Cameroonians lacking access to quality healthcare. The document proposes studying alternative sustainable financing methods to improve access and reduce financial barriers to healthcare.
Health Care Financing in Cameroon
This document discusses primary health care financing reforms in Cameroon. It notes that Cameroon currently relies heavily on out-of-pocket payments for health care, which has led to high rates of catastrophic health expenditures and barriers to access. The document reviews Cameroon's socioeconomic context and history of health policies. It proposes developing a more sustainable financing method to improve access and reduce financial barriers. A literature review defines key concepts in health policy, financing, equity, efficiency, and expenditures to provide context for analyzing alternatives.
Decentralization of health services in Nigeria by Dr Daniel Gobgab, CHAN
Nigeria has a population of 173 million people governed across 36 states and 774 local government areas. Health services are decentralized across three levels of government - federal, state, and local. The new National Health Act aims to improve healthcare access and quality through a basic healthcare provision fund and universal health coverage. Key challenges to decentralization include a lack of political will, limited local capacity and resources, and inequities in service distribution across areas.

This document discusses financing of a tertiary level health facility in Kumasi, Ghana. It finds that the main sources of funding are internally generated funds (IGF), government of Ghana subventions (GoG), and donor pool funds (DPF). IGF contributes the most at 88% of total cash revenue, followed by GoG at 8.97% and DPF at 3.35%. Expenditure is categorized into personnel emoluments, administration, service delivery, and investment. Service delivery such as drugs constitutes the largest expenditure, followed by personnel emoluments, administration, and investment. Since IGF is now the most reliable source of revenue, policies and strategies must be implemented to enhance revenue mobilization in the health
Alternative forms of health financing
The document discusses alternative forms of health financing being tested or used in various countries to help people afford healthcare and avoid poverty from medical costs, such as community-funded insurance, microcredit services for insurance, taxes on goods like tobacco, and prioritizing resources currently spent on non-essential activities. Examples of health financing systems used in African countries include general tax revenue, donor funding, mandatory and voluntary insurance, community-based insurance, and exemptions from fees. While increasing tax revenue is difficult, improving tax compliance and efficiency along with gradually introducing alternative financing options may help fund healthcare.

The document summarizes challenges to accessing essential medicines in Kenya's public health system. It discusses how Kenya's health system is divided into public, private, and faith-based sectors. The public sector faces challenges like stockouts of commonly prescribed medicines, issues in the supply chain, and poor storage conditions. Decentralization of healthcare management to county governments has contributed to financing issues challenging public health facilities. The document analyzes these challenges and provides recommendations to improve access, such as better training for ordering, storing, and prescribing medicines.

This document compares the healthcare systems of China, Turkey, and Mozambique based on six foundational elements: service delivery, workforce, access to medication, financing, health information systems, and leadership/governance. Regarding service delivery, China is reforming its system which previously had long stays and excess capacity. Mozambique has low access, especially for facility-based care. Turkey has enhanced access through high-efficiency services. For financing, China relies heavily on out-of-pocket costs while Turkey and Mozambique receive international support to improve coverage.
Phic case study
This document discusses healthcare and national health insurance in the Philippines. It outlines how the Philippines established public and private healthcare systems in the 1900s, but public funding declined in the 1970s-1990s. It established the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation in 1994 to provide universal health coverage through premium-based insurance, though only 50% of the population was covered by 2010 with low reimbursement rates. The document proposes reforms to the national health agenda, including the government shouldering premiums for the poor, increasing benefits packages, and improving public health outcomes focused on maternal and child health.

Community-based health insurance (CBHI) emerged in West Africa the 1990s as a grassroots response among rural and poor communities to fees charged by private and public clinics and hospitals. Three countries – Ghana, Senegal, and Ethiopia – have leveraged CBHI in different ways to expand publicly funded coverage to the informal sector in rural and urban settings. This paper synthesizes the experiences from these three countries to illustrate the role that CBHI can play in UHC.

Universal health coverage
This document discusses universal health coverage (UHC), which aims to provide access to good quality health services for all members of a society while protecting people from financial hardship due to health costs. UHC can be defined by who and what services are covered and how much of the cost is covered. The WHO defines UHC as access to effective health services without financial hardship. Achieving UHC requires an efficient health system providing services, workers, and medicines to the population as well as a financing system to protect people from health costs. Various funding models like compulsory insurance, tax-based financing, and social health insurance can be used. Egypt has both public and private healthcare sectors working towards UHC.

How Ethiopia is Empowering Women Through Community-Based Health Insurance
Ethiopia has implemented Community Based Health Insurance (CBHI) schemes to provide healthcare access and financial protection to its citizens. Through CBHI, members pay annual premiums into a collective fund which covers basic health costs. This empowers women by allowing them to access care without permission or money from male heads of household. Over 10 million Ethiopians in 181 districts now have insurance through CBHI, including vulnerable groups. The schemes have increased healthcare utilization and female-headed households are more likely to join than male-headed ones.
Israel healthcare system financial management
Israel transformed its healthcare system in 1995 with a national health insurance law. The law guarantees citizens access to government-funded medical services delivered through four competing, nonprofit health plans (HMOs). The HMOs work to contain costs while improving quality and promoting equitable access to care. Services are paid for through compulsory health taxes on income. Israel's system is ranked among the most efficient and healthiest in the world.
Canadian Healthcare System
Canada has a universal healthcare system that is publicly funded and administered at the provincial level. It aims to provide comprehensive coverage to all Canadian citizens and permanent residents. However, there are some issues with long wait times to see specialists or receive elective surgeries. The UK has a similar universal healthcare system called the National Health Service, while the US relies more heavily on private insurance with high costs for many Americans. Myanmar's healthcare system has gaps between providers and patients due to limited resources.

Israel's system is ranked among the most efficient and healthiest in the world.
Canadian Healthcare System
Canada has a universal healthcare system that is publicly funded and administered at the provincial level. It aims to provide comprehensive coverage to all Canadian citizens and permanent residents. However, there are some issues with long wait times to see specialists or receive elective surgeries. The UK has a similar universal healthcare system called the National Health Service, while the US relies more heavily on private insurance with high costs for many Americans. Myanmar's healthcare system has gaps between providers and patients due to limited resources.

What's a Feminist Critique?
-- Feminist criticism is concerned with the ways in which literature, film, and other cultural productions reinforce or undermine the economic, political, social, and psychological oppression of women.
This school of theory considers how aspects of our culture are inherently patriarchal (male dominated). Feminist critique strives to expose the explicit and implicit androcentric or misogynist attitudes present in a text. It examines the text's ultimate message regarding gender and considers the subtle gender-coded messages embedded in the text.
A feminist critique may uncover an ultimately feminist or pro-woman message; more frequently, it uncovers and unpacks the ways in which a text is anti-feminist.
Common Space in Feminist Theories
women are oppressed by patriarchy economically, politically, socially, and psychologically; patriarchal ideology is the primary means by which they are kept so.
In every domain where patriarchy begins, woman is Other: she is marginalized, defined only by her difference from male norms and values.
All of western (Anglo-European) civilization is deeply rooted in patriarchal ideology; for example, in the biblical portrayal of Eve as the origin of sin and death in the world
While biology determines our sex (male or female), culture determines our gender (masculine or feminine)
All feminist activity, including feminist theory and literary criticism, has as its ultimate goal to change the world by promoting gender equality
Gender issues play a part in every aspect of human production and experience, including the production and experience of literature, whether we are consciously aware of these issues or not
Questions to consider:
how is the relationship between men and women portrayed?
what are the power relationships between men and women (or characters assuming male/female roles)?
how are male and female roles defined?
what constitutes masculinity and femininity?
how do characters embody these traits?
do characters take on traits from opposite genders? how so? how does this change others’ reactions to them?
what does the work reveal about the operations (economically, politically, socially, or psychologically) of patriarchy?
what does the work imply about the possibilities of sisterhood as a mode of resisting patriarchy?
what does the work say about women’s creativity?
what does the history of.

Complete Part I, then revise the sentences in Part II so that their verbs are in the active voice. Some sentences could contain more than one passive verb; correct them all, rewriting them when necessary. Please do not merely eliminate information that you find difficult to revise into active voice.
Example:
The bodies were discovered in the wreckage by several children as they were walking to school.
Answer:
Several children discovered the bodies in the wreckage as they walked to school.
Remember, you need to find the agent—the person or thing that is performing the action expressed in the verb—and make it the subject of the sentence:
·
Do a global search for the words "was" and then "were." These words often indicate the passive voice.
·
Cross out the "was" or the "were."
·
Add -ed to the verb that follows "was" or "were."
·
If that changed verb does not make grammatical sense, it is an irregular verb, so change it to the simple past tense.
·
Move the active sentence's direct object into the sentence's subject slot
·
Place the active sentence's subject into a phrase beginning with the
preposition
by
·
Add a form of the
auxiliary verb
be
to the main verb and change the main verb's form
Please place a complete slug at the top left of your assignment.
Here is the quiz:
I. Explain the difference between the active and the passive voices; then write a sentence in the passive voice and rewrite the same sentence using in the active voice.

Kevin is a hardworking salesperson at a local department store in a small town. He is a great salesperson and takes pride in his work. He is single and is new to the area.
When Kevin first started, he was introduced to everyone by Sally, his trainer. They went to the break room, and Sally said to enjoy the remainder of his break and left. Shortly after she left, one of the employees introduced himself to Kevin and made a lewd remark about Sally. The other male employees sitting in the break room laughed and made similar comments under their breath. Kevin remained silent and changed the subject.
Kevin’s friend Ned who he met playing volleyball works in a business that is close to Kevin’s store, so they go out to lunch on a regular basis. One day, Ned picked up Kevin to go to lunch and his coworkers saw them. Another time, when they were on their way to a game after work, one of his coworkers ran into them. Since then, whenever Kevin enters the break room, the other male employees give him the silent treatment. It seems that whenever he leaves th.

5. Evaluate the sampling decisions:
a. Was this an appropriate sample size?
b. What parameters might have been used in structuring this sample?
Akron Children's Hospital Case Study A
Q1: What is the management-research questions hierarchy for Akron Children's Hospital?
Management question: A way for Akron Children to differentiate itself with the powerhouse health care institutions such as the Cleveland Clinic that ventured into the care segment of children.
Research question: How parents decide on where to take their children when acute care is necessary?
Investigative questions: The consumer’s hospital-choice decision process and the index perceptions that is associated with a hospital in the market
Q2: What are the advantages/disadvantages of an observation study for this research?
Besides collecting data visually, observation involves listening, reading, smelling, and touching. Behavioral scientists define observation in terms of animal or human behavior, but this too is limiting (Cooper, D., & Schlindler, P. 2013, p. 172).
Directness: Observation in the study provides direct access to the social phenomenon that is considered. Instead of asking people questions, observation can be used to observe and record the behavior in every situation. In essence, it avoids the wide range of setbacks encountered with self-report. In the Akron study parents, physicians, and child patients were observed through the diagnosis, testing, and the treatment.
Diversity, Flexibility and Applicability: Observation takes diverse forms from unstructured and informal approaches through tightly structured procedures that are standardized to yield associated types of data both quantitative and qualitative.
First-hand information: The researchers watched listened and recorded first-hand information on emotional and first physical reactions and heart-wrenching conversations. For instance, Joanne Kim, creative director and Marcus Thomas partner shared the way they watched how doctors talk to children about the health-associated problems rather than talking to parents thus getting the first-h.

Ghana Health Care SystemIn March 1957 the Republic of Ghana w.docx
- 1. Ghana: Health Care System In March 1957 the Republic of Ghana was the first African country to achieve its independence from the United Kingdom. The first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, commissioned health care facilities to care for indigenous people of Ghana. The health system was fully funded by state revenue; however, the lack of accessible health facilities in rural areas led to poor health outcomes (increase in communicable and non- communicable diseases, high infant and child mortality rates, etc.). The health system eventually experienced a budget crisis and, consequently, moved towards a cash system in which the patient pays for care and medication. Health Care System There are four main categories of health delivery systems in Ghana: public, private for-profit, private not-for-profit, and traditional systems. There has been a mandate since 1995 to integrate traditional and mainstream medicine. The health care system in Ghana is divided into three administrative levels: national, regional, and district levels. Additionally, there are several funding sources for the health system in place, however, it is grossly inadequate for achieving the goal of providing access to even basic health care for citizens throughout the country. Watch the video, Dying patients in Search of Basic Healthcare in Ghana (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. that reveals the constraints and challenges in delivering health care in Ghana.
- 2. Briefly summarize the key things you learned about the constraints and challenges. How do you think Ghana can tackle these constraints and challenges? Compare how Ghana’s healthcare system compares to that of the United States and explain any similarities/differences.
