The document discusses the ongoing problem of limited medical residency opportunities in Canada. It notes that there are significantly more applicants than available residency programs due to Canada having less than a dozen hospitals authorized to offer residencies. This residency bottleneck means that many medical graduates are unable to obtain the necessary real-world training and experience to work in the healthcare field, even when applying through national matching programs.

Optimizing Referrals Across Community Services and Healthcare Providers
As healthcare providers better understand how the social determinants of health impact health outcomes, they look to partner with community-based providers. As partnerships have formed between healthcare providers and community service organizations, two referral partnership models have emerged: the care directory and the care network. Both models seek to improve access to community and healthcare services, but they employ different approaches to achieve the goal. This white paper describes the two partnership models and examines the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Executive Summary
This document discusses the need for reforms to disability services in the US, with a focus on services for adults with moderate to severe autism spectrum disorder. It notes that autism rates have increased tenfold in the last 15 years, with 1 in 110 children now being diagnosed. As these children age, the adult population with autism requiring housing, medical care, employment and other services will substantially increase. The document proposes a group home model with residences for four individuals to provide specialized support and a natural living environment, replacing less effective independent or small group living models. Increased funding from Medicaid and other sources would be needed to expand these group homes to meet growing demand and provide consistent support services for adults with autism to gain independence.

20110501 Treating the Healthcare Crisis
The healthcare crisis in the US is exacerbated by a shortage of physicians, especially primary care physicians. The number of physicians needs to increase to meet the growing and aging population's demand. One solution is to increase medical school enrollment. Larger class sizes could lower tuition costs and reduce medical student debt, encouraging more to enter primary care. With more physicians, especially primary care doctors, healthcare access and quality could improve while costs decrease through increased competition and prevention focus.

Distribution of health care
Introduction
The big business of health care is growing in a massive rate more now than ever according to The Center for Health Workforce Studies a non-profit organization located in Rensselaer, New York the organization report that, “While total U.S. employment dropped by over 2% between 2000 and 2010, health care employment grew by more than 25% during the same period. More than 13% of the U.S. labor force worked in the health sector or in a health occupation (19 million jobs out of 143 million jobs in U.S. labor force). The health care sector is projected to add over 4.2 million jobs between 2010 and 2020, with 63% of those in ambulatory settings (offices of health practitioners, home health, and other non-institutional settings” (2012, CHWS). Health care is booming in all areas of study and research from Holistic to Western Medicine which include purchasing and supply. Unfortunately this is based off the demand for more Physicians that are not available where there is a need. The health care industry believe it or not includes the food industry and health and fitness as well.
The matter of ethics within the health care industry always needs to be address along with the quality of care for patients. Within this working essay paper I will discuss the matter of; Care & Service Provider, Ethics (codes and values), Mal-Distribution Physician Labor Forces. Even though the health care industry is growing the mal-distribution of health care is still evident in some rural areas. This factor of not having proper care delivered to impoverish neighborhoods and communities is another issue that still plagues the United States. David Cutler the online journal reporter for PBS News Hour stated, “About 10, 15 percent. Just to give you one example, Duke University Hospital has 900 hospital beds and 1,300 billing clerks. The typical Canadian hospital has a handful of billing clerks. Single-payer systems have fewer administrative needs. That’s not to say they’re better, but that’s just on one dimension that they clearly cost less. What a lot of those people are doing in America is they are figuring out how to bill different insurers for different systems, figuring out how to collect money from people, all of that sort of stuff” (2013). The need for health care workers is great, but the balance is off regarding where the needs are not being meet.

This document discusses the evolution of the advanced registered nurse role over time from the 20th century to today. It describes how nursing education has advanced from informal training to formal nursing school programs. It also discusses how the ARN role has gained more autonomy, specialized practices, and valued opinions over the decades. However, there is still progress to be made, such as obtaining full prescribing privileges across all US states. The document predicts the ARN role will continue evolving to meet the changing US healthcare system, such as taking on more primary care responsibilities to address coverage and access issues.

The Determination of Eligibility for Medicaid

The Determination of Eligibility for Medicaid
Introduction
The social health care program, Medicaid is aimed at providing health care services to the needy and those with disabilities in the United States. The Act should provide the state with the way forward or criteria to be followed in selecting the people who are to benefit from the social health program. However, over time, it has not been clear to every American citizen as to which criteria should be used in determining the needy in the society. In particular, it has been challenging on selecting the eligible citizens for the program with a focus on the level of income and the level of expenditure. For instance, the issue of “spend down” periods has posed a lot of difficulties in determining the eligibility for Medicaid. A way great issue regarding the funding, expansion, and determination of eligibility for Medicaid includes the requirement by the Supreme Court in the United States for regions such as Massachusetts to contribute the six months’ excess income towards medical expenditure before the Medicaid coverage program begins in such regions. This paper seeks to explain the issue of Medicaid coverage and the eligibility of the different level of community members. It also explores the level of government affected by the issue as well as the analysis of the eligibility of Medicaid.
Economic Issue
The social health program (Medicaid) requires adequate funding in order to cover effectively a large and needy population. While it would be more beneficial to expand the program to the other categories of people in the society such as those with disabilities, there should be constant and enough supply of funds both from the government and the good wishers such as donors to help reach out every needy member of the society. Inadequate funding is an issue since there is a large percentage of people who need medical assistance and cannot afford it unless they get subsidized medical health care or fully assisted by programs such as the Medicaid (Ford, Spicer, & Institute of Medicine (U.S.), 2012).
Coupled with the low income of most of the society members, it is clear and evident enough that the majority of the people in the United States value social programs such as Medicaid. However, failure to adequately fund the program has only led to development and implementation of strict procedures and regulations in determining those who are eligible for the program. In particular, the six-month spend down period has resulted in more complex procedures, some of which are neither clear nor understandable to society members. The methodology used has never been friendly to the low-income people; the approach involving spend down for ...

Limited Medical Residencies Continue to be a Problem in Canada
- 1. Limited Medical Residencies Continue to be a Problem in Canada By: Residents Medical
- 2. Limited Medical Residencies Continue to be a Problem in Canada Residents Medical, based in Los Angeles, is an internationally-recognized organization that helps medical graduates find residency opportunities across the nation. Mrs. Agata Everest, who runs Residents Medical, works to expand access to these programs across the United States and Canada.
- 3. Limited Medical Residencies Continue to be a Problem in Canada Many health-based institutions have highlighted that the availability of residencies in Canada has been limited for some time. While doctor shortages in the United States may partly be a result of too-few residency programs, Canada has much lower options for medical training because the country has less than a dozen hospitals with the authorization to offer residencies.
- 4. Limited Medical Residencies Continue to be a Problem in Canada This creates a residency bottleneck in which there are significantly more applicants than existing programs than can feasibly accept. As such, a vast number of medical graduates cannot obtain the necessary real-world training and experience to work in the field. Although potential residents can apply through the National Residency Match Program and the Canadian Resident Matching Service, these institutions often can't pair every individual with a residency.
