Public Health Finance Management Needs and How Public Health Agencies are Funded
Public Health Finance Management Needs and How Public Health Agencies are FundedNational Coordinating Center for Public Health Services & Systems Research
This document discusses a conference on public health finance management and data harmonization efforts. It notes challenges with collecting comparable financial data from health agencies due to varying definitions, reporting periods, and service categories. Surveys found that over half of local health departments experienced budget cuts from 2008 to 2010 due to the economic recession. There is a lack of standardized metrics and methods to accurately measure total public health expenditures and assess the impact of funding on outcomes.IssaPopulation and SamplingThe constructs of population and sa.docx

Population and Sampling
The constructs of population and sampling are integral to all research undertakings. Populations refer to a complete set of elements, whether persons or objects, that possess some common characteristics defined by the sampling criteria established by the researcher(Han,2019). The number of elements in the populations reflects the size of the population. Populations can fall into either target populations or accessible populations. The targeted population for this research study will consist investment leaders from capital investment companies in the northeast of U.S , who have a least 5 years experiences in the industry and implanted strategies to increase investment return, and investment performance.
The population is a collection of individuals from which researchers develop their sample research study(Han, 2019). Researchers must ensure the targeted population to be accessible; selecting an inaccessible population could potentially affect the scholar's ability to collect data(Binde & Romild, 2019). Aligning the population with the research question allows researchers to collect data from strategic investment decision making leaders from capital investment industry in northeast region of the U.S ,who met the criteria from the research study. Hence, providing enough data is a precursor to credible analysis and reporting to determine an adequate sample size that has a direct relation with data saturation. However, the quantity is not the determining factor when it comes to data saturation; the quality of the data must align with the research study(Binde & Romild, 2019).
Sampling refers to the process of selecting a sample from a population of interest so that a researcher can fairly generalize the results gained from these participants to the population from which the researcher obtained the sample(Wei et al,2019). There are different types of sampling techniques that researchers can utilize during their investigations, which broadly fall into probability and non-probability sampling(Wei et al ,2019). Some of the most notable probability sampling techniques include simple random sampling, stratified sampling, clustered sampling, and systematic sampling (Han, 2019).
Thu, on the contrary, non-probability sampling techniques include convenience sampling, purposive sampling, quota sampling, and snowball sampling. The main difference between a sample and a population has to do with the manner in which the researcher assigns observations to the data set(Binde & Romild, 2019). A population includes all the elements from a data set, whereas a sample consists of one or more observations derived from the population. The constructs of population and sampling can indeed find direct application in my doctoral research study. I will use purposive sample to compute the correct sample size from the population that can make the findings easy to generalize to the wider population.
In selecting samples during my research endea ...

Data Warehouse Presentation
A data warehouse is a database organized to allow fast queries of information from different systems. It contains numerical "facts" like meals provided or dollars spent, stored at a specific level of detail called the "grain." Dimensions like ethnicity, language, or location are used to group and describe facts in queries. Building a data warehouse involves extracting data from source systems, transforming it by standardizing codes and values, and loading it into the warehouse where it can be analyzed to answer business questions.

Building on the work you completed in Weeks Two and Four, you wi.docx
Building on the work you completed in Weeks Two and Four, you will complete a feasibility study based on a pre-approved health care project of your choice. Using the feasibility study outlined in the Daniels and Dickson (1990) article as a model, and including a minimum of six other scholarly sources, create a 12- to 15-page feasibility study that includes the following headings and supporting information:
Evaluating Feasibility
The concept of a feasibility study is central to viability, the “worth to the effort” ratio, and return on investment (ROI). What needs to be taken into consideration to create a feasibility study (e.g., human resources, community needs, and technological advances, federal and state regulatory issues)? Within this section, you will research and design an economical health care service that is responsive to a given market. This research stems from understanding your target population and present need in health services. Furthermore, as you have seen from the Daniels and Dickson (1990) article, you must appraise your human resources, capital investment, and how your effort will yield a return on investment from a facilities perspective as well as the tangible greater good of providing healthcare to a community.
Strategic Effect
Analyze the role of public policy with regard to your project. What policies and processes should be in place to create an effective program? How will you measure the effectiveness of your program and your provision of health care services? Develop a microeconomic model that is responsive to the specific health care service demands of your target population. For example, the current trend of the medical home model, which allows for the coordination of care, allows for better communication among service providers as well as convenience for patients. Is the population a market priority? How does your program serve a need for your target population?
Market Analysis
Within this section you will identify the population demographics, who your competitors are, and whether or not a real need for the services you are proposing exists in the community. As you examine the demographic and population needs using Census data and other reliable sources, you must also consider what competitors, if any, exist in the present climate. This requires an evaluation of the present socioeconomic and cultural trends influencing how people make decisions in health care. In addition, in this analysis you will need to compare and contrast economic challenges and incentives among health care’s organization models. This comparison requires an understanding of past challenges and incentives that other organizations have implemented.
Financial Analysis
This section includes the revenue, expenses, and net income. Compare and contrast economic challenges and incentives by finding and describing multiple sources of public and private funding (e.g., grants, donations, awards, special projects) for this project. Inclu.

Security of Health Care RecordsWith the increase of health informa.docx
Security of Health Care Records
With the increase of health information technology used to store and access patient information, the likelihood of security breaches has also risen. In fact, according to the
Canadian Medical Association Journal
(CMAJ):
In the United States, there was a whopping 97% increase in the number of health records breached from 2010 to 2011… The number of patient records accessed in each breach has also increased substantially, from 26,968 (in 2010) to 49,394 (in 2011). Since August 2009, when the US government regulated that any breach affecting more than 500 patients be publicly disclosed, a total of 385 breaches, involving more than 19 million records, have been reported to the Department of Health and Human Services.
A large portion of those breaches, 39%, occurred because of a lost, stolen, or otherwise compromised portable electronic device—a problem that will likely only get worse as iPads, smartphones, and other gadgets become more common in hospitals. (CMAJ, 2012, p. E215).
Consider your own experiences. Does your organization use portable electronic devices? What safeguards are in place to ensure the security of data and patient information? For this Discussion you consider ethical and security issues surrounding the protection of digital health information.
To prepare:
·
Review the Learning Resources dealing with the security of digital health care information. Reflect on your own organization or one with which you are familiar, and think about how health information stored electronically is protected.
·
Consider the nurse’s responsibility to ensure the protection of patient information. What strategies can you use?
·
Reflect on ethical issues that are likely to arise with the increased access to newer, smaller, and more powerful technology tools.
·
Consider strategies that can be implemented to ensure that the use of HIT contributes to an overall culture of safety.
Post 1 page response APA format ( at least 3 references)
1.
an analysis of the nurse’s responsibility to protect patient information and the extent that HIT has made it easier or more difficult to protect patient privacy.
2.
Comment on any security or ethical issues related to the use of portable devices to store information.
3.
Assess the strategies your organization uses to safeguard patient information and how these promote a culture of safety.
4.
Describe an area where improvement is needed and one strategy that could address the situation.

The weekly assignment for the course is a comprehensive assignment. Each week, you will be completing part of this assignment based on the content covered in the week. You will add new content to the report each week to build a comprehensive security solution for an organization.
Scenario
A tire manufacturing company, who wishes to be called ABC, Inc. to protect its privacy, has recently fallen victim to a cybercrime. The customer information and some of its proprietary technology were compromised in the attack. This company has been in the business for pretty long and enjoys a big market share. If its identity is disclosed, the attack has the potential to cause it to lose customer confidence. Also, some of its competitors are constantly looking for opportunities to hack the company's important strategic and functional information.
The company's head, Dermot Reed, is very concerned about the situation because a recent study shows that some of its competitors have started using its techniques. The source of the attack remains unknown. It could be that an internal, disgruntled, or greedy employee has been involved in the attack or has been revealing important information to its competitors. Moreover, there have been several attempts of hacking in the past that have been unsuccessful, prior to the incident. Ed Young, the network administrator, has requested a budget for a system overhaul to rebuild the infrastructure of the organization with an emphasis on security.
The company does not have anything currently in terms of true security measures. Young is competent but has limited understanding of attack methodologies. The attacks were thwarted mainly due to automated antivirus programs installed on the servers. ABC, Inc. has a network with four servers that cater to around 450 employees. ABC, Inc. keeps track of its data using a MySQL database. However, some of the data is found to be incorrect in its database since somebody has modified it outside of normal business operation hours.
The database server is used for updating the inventory records. The database contains information about quantity of raw materials available, quantity of finished products, price of finished products, etc. Users from across the organization use the database to access different information. Therefore, availability of the server is critical. Young would like a recommendation from you on the fault-tolerance mechanism that can ensure uninterrupted business and security on the database to prevent unauthorized modifications.
Ken Burton, the sales and marketing head is worried about the security of the laptops that the sales and marketing personnel carry with them while traveling. Burton has previously reported that data on these laptops has been leaked or hacked when these laptops are outside the organization network. Burton wants a system by which these computers can be secured while they move out of the organizational network and still maintain a secure.

Public Health Finance Management Needs and How Public Health Agencies are Funded
Public Health Finance Management Needs and How Public Health Agencies are FundedNational Coordinating Center for Public Health Services & Systems Research
This document discusses a conference on public health finance management and data harmonization efforts. It notes challenges with collecting comparable financial data from health agencies due to varying definitions, reporting periods, and service categories. Surveys found that over half of local health departments experienced budget cuts from 2008 to 2010 due to the economic recession. There is a lack of standardized metrics and methods to accurately measure total public health expenditures and assess the impact of funding on outcomes.IssaPopulation and SamplingThe constructs of population and sa.docx

Population and Sampling
The constructs of population and sampling are integral to all research undertakings. Populations refer to a complete set of elements, whether persons or objects, that possess some common characteristics defined by the sampling criteria established by the researcher(Han,2019). The number of elements in the populations reflects the size of the population. Populations can fall into either target populations or accessible populations. The targeted population for this research study will consist investment leaders from capital investment companies in the northeast of U.S , who have a least 5 years experiences in the industry and implanted strategies to increase investment return, and investment performance.
The population is a collection of individuals from which researchers develop their sample research study(Han, 2019). Researchers must ensure the targeted population to be accessible; selecting an inaccessible population could potentially affect the scholar's ability to collect data(Binde & Romild, 2019). Aligning the population with the research question allows researchers to collect data from strategic investment decision making leaders from capital investment industry in northeast region of the U.S ,who met the criteria from the research study. Hence, providing enough data is a precursor to credible analysis and reporting to determine an adequate sample size that has a direct relation with data saturation. However, the quantity is not the determining factor when it comes to data saturation; the quality of the data must align with the research study(Binde & Romild, 2019).
Sampling refers to the process of selecting a sample from a population of interest so that a researcher can fairly generalize the results gained from these participants to the population from which the researcher obtained the sample(Wei et al,2019). There are different types of sampling techniques that researchers can utilize during their investigations, which broadly fall into probability and non-probability sampling(Wei et al ,2019). Some of the most notable probability sampling techniques include simple random sampling, stratified sampling, clustered sampling, and systematic sampling (Han, 2019).
Thu, on the contrary, non-probability sampling techniques include convenience sampling, purposive sampling, quota sampling, and snowball sampling. The main difference between a sample and a population has to do with the manner in which the researcher assigns observations to the data set(Binde & Romild, 2019). A population includes all the elements from a data set, whereas a sample consists of one or more observations derived from the population. The constructs of population and sampling can indeed find direct application in my doctoral research study. I will use purposive sample to compute the correct sample size from the population that can make the findings easy to generalize to the wider population.
In selecting samples during my research endea ...

Data Warehouse Presentation
A data warehouse is a database organized to allow fast queries of information from different systems. It contains numerical "facts" like meals provided or dollars spent, stored at a specific level of detail called the "grain." Dimensions like ethnicity, language, or location are used to group and describe facts in queries. Building a data warehouse involves extracting data from source systems, transforming it by standardizing codes and values, and loading it into the warehouse where it can be analyzed to answer business questions.

Building on the work you completed in Weeks Two and Four, you wi.docx
Building on the work you completed in Weeks Two and Four, you will complete a feasibility study based on a pre-approved health care project of your choice. Using the feasibility study outlined in the Daniels and Dickson (1990) article as a model, and including a minimum of six other scholarly sources, create a 12- to 15-page feasibility study that includes the following headings and supporting information:
Evaluating Feasibility
The concept of a feasibility study is central to viability, the “worth to the effort” ratio, and return on investment (ROI). What needs to be taken into consideration to create a feasibility study (e.g., human resources, community needs, and technological advances, federal and state regulatory issues)? Within this section, you will research and design an economical health care service that is responsive to a given market. This research stems from understanding your target population and present need in health services. Furthermore, as you have seen from the Daniels and Dickson (1990) article, you must appraise your human resources, capital investment, and how your effort will yield a return on investment from a facilities perspective as well as the tangible greater good of providing healthcare to a community.
Strategic Effect
Analyze the role of public policy with regard to your project. What policies and processes should be in place to create an effective program? How will you measure the effectiveness of your program and your provision of health care services? Develop a microeconomic model that is responsive to the specific health care service demands of your target population. For example, the current trend of the medical home model, which allows for the coordination of care, allows for better communication among service providers as well as convenience for patients. Is the population a market priority? How does your program serve a need for your target population?
Market Analysis
Within this section you will identify the population demographics, who your competitors are, and whether or not a real need for the services you are proposing exists in the community. As you examine the demographic and population needs using Census data and other reliable sources, you must also consider what competitors, if any, exist in the present climate. This requires an evaluation of the present socioeconomic and cultural trends influencing how people make decisions in health care. In addition, in this analysis you will need to compare and contrast economic challenges and incentives among health care’s organization models. This comparison requires an understanding of past challenges and incentives that other organizations have implemented.
Financial Analysis
This section includes the revenue, expenses, and net income. Compare and contrast economic challenges and incentives by finding and describing multiple sources of public and private funding (e.g., grants, donations, awards, special projects) for this project. Inclu.

Security of Health Care RecordsWith the increase of health informa.docx
Security of Health Care Records
With the increase of health information technology used to store and access patient information, the likelihood of security breaches has also risen. In fact, according to the
Canadian Medical Association Journal
(CMAJ):
In the United States, there was a whopping 97% increase in the number of health records breached from 2010 to 2011… The number of patient records accessed in each breach has also increased substantially, from 26,968 (in 2010) to 49,394 (in 2011). Since August 2009, when the US government regulated that any breach affecting more than 500 patients be publicly disclosed, a total of 385 breaches, involving more than 19 million records, have been reported to the Department of Health and Human Services.
A large portion of those breaches, 39%, occurred because of a lost, stolen, or otherwise compromised portable electronic device—a problem that will likely only get worse as iPads, smartphones, and other gadgets become more common in hospitals. (CMAJ, 2012, p. E215).
Consider your own experiences. Does your organization use portable electronic devices? What safeguards are in place to ensure the security of data and patient information? For this Discussion you consider ethical and security issues surrounding the protection of digital health information.
To prepare:
·
Review the Learning Resources dealing with the security of digital health care information. Reflect on your own organization or one with which you are familiar, and think about how health information stored electronically is protected.
·
Consider the nurse’s responsibility to ensure the protection of patient information. What strategies can you use?
·
Reflect on ethical issues that are likely to arise with the increased access to newer, smaller, and more powerful technology tools.
·
Consider strategies that can be implemented to ensure that the use of HIT contributes to an overall culture of safety.
Post 1 page response APA format ( at least 3 references)
1.
an analysis of the nurse’s responsibility to protect patient information and the extent that HIT has made it easier or more difficult to protect patient privacy.
2.
Comment on any security or ethical issues related to the use of portable devices to store information.
3.
Assess the strategies your organization uses to safeguard patient information and how these promote a culture of safety.
4.
Describe an area where improvement is needed and one strategy that could address the situation.

Section 1–Organizational DescriptionAssignment Length 2–3 pages.docx
Section 1–Organizational Description
Assignment Length: 2–3 pages
The executive leadership of an organization has hired your firm to work with them; largely for your firm’s ability to support recommendations made with current research on systems and leadership management and theory. The client would like your firm to model and describe their organization based on recent developments in both systems and leadership management and theory.
The notion of tipping points is related to systems as that point in which a system changes from one state to another. While there is a mathematical description for a tipping point, it is out of scope for this class. Instead, consider a tipping point as simply a break from the current state of a system to a new state. For example, if a company were to be acquired by another company, it would experience a tipping point. If a company were to radically downscale, then it would experience another tipping point. Tipping points are a common feature of systems, such as ecological systems, climate systems, insect colonies, and human social systems.
For this Final Project component, select an organization with which you are familiar. The organization can be a corporation, a nonprofit, a community organization, a government agency/sub-agency, a military organization, or other entity involving people, resources, and goals, such as a city, county, state, or country.
This week, you begin your Consultancy Report for the executive leadership of your selected organization. Review the Final Project Template for details about this week’s Final Project component.
Please include the following in 2–3 pages
:
Using the PowerPoint template, model the following for your organization (this model will be inserted as a figure into your Final Project Template or attached as a separate file, which is likely the best option as the number of slides increases):
·
Inputs (information, materials, and energy)
·
Top-level organizational process
·
Outputs (information, materials, and energy)
·
Two or more thresholds or tipping points beyond which the organization would become unrecognizable
·
Explain the organization in detail to interpret your model.
·
Explain how general systems theory and Boulding’s hierarchy of systems might inform the executive leaderships’ understanding of its organization’s and leadership/management’s thinking.
Include at least two citations/references to current literature to support your rationale to the executive leadership.
Section 2–Systems Dynamics (Stocks, Flows, and Feedback Loops)
The Assignment:
This week, you continue your Consultancy Report for the executive leadership of your selected organization. Review the Final Project Template for details about this week’s Final Project component.
Please include the following in 2–3 pages:
·
Evaluate at least three stocks and associated flows in your selected organization.
·
Evaluate at least one positive feedback loop in your selected organization.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
