RUNNING HEAD: Affordable Care Act 1 Affordable Care Act 2 ACA Healthcare Policy Busola Omolayole Walden University TN006 Policy and Regulation Supporting Informatics and Technology Integration 2/3/2020 Affordable Care Act (ACA) The affordable care act (ACA) policy was signed into law by the previous U.S. President Barack Obama in March of 2010 (HealthIT.gov., n.d.). The policy shares the responsibility of providing access to reasonable and good-quality health insurance by the government to individuals, employers in the United States. It is aimed at improving access and expanding health insurance coverage to all U.S. citizens and combat healthcare spending and costs (Quadagno, 2019). Also, the policy increased accessibility to care and quality care services, which determine the overall health in the U.S. Health insurance companies cannot deny coverage of preexisting conditions and cannot increase premiums based on medical conditions. Impact of the ACA on System Implementation After the 2016 open enrollment period, 17.6 million uninsured citizens obtained coverage through ACA; the uninsured rate fell below 10 percent that same year. (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, n.d.). ACA has a significant impact on system implementation, according to industry experts. ACA supports Medicaid expansion. Make healthcare coverage more affordable and fair. The establishment of new health insurance marketplaces, also known as exchanges and implementation of market reforms, is another issue that is being addressed (HealthIT.gov.,n.d.). Providing care for people who live on a limited income or have a preexisting condition. Strengthening access to preventive and primary care. Increase healthcare quality at the same time decreasing careless expenses and increasing being accountable (PolicyMedical., n.d.). ACA has provisions that give system implementation a motive to build and enforce new policies that target increased efficiency (Ruffin, 2019). ACA is poised for consistent growth through value-based medications in the presence of evident uncertainty with a gradual repeal of the ACA for many payers in the care sector. Through growth in clinical care and public programs, being strategical in investments in public health (PolicyMedical., n.d.). By collaboration amongst the government, individuals, and employers, Americans can attain universal healthcare. ACA has Improved Outcomes and Efficiencies ACA has increased care coverage to millions of U.S. citizens. As a result, there is an improvement in care quality services since the healthcare cost is subsidized. Those with health insurance access better services in the United States (Huang et al., 2019). The wide range of plans resulting from ACA increases efficiency .

Impact of the ACA on the Health Care
Affordable Care Act (ACA) is one of the legislative laws that played an important role in redefining the health sector in the United States. The Act has been instrumental in ensuring medical coverage to enable citizens to acquire affordable health care services. The paper examines the impact of the ACA in healthcare as well as the effect that would be experienced if the law is repealed.
The main goal of ACA was to expand both the private and Medicaid coverage to ensure that it covers more than 50 million citizens that were uninsured before the law was enacted (Eguia et al., 2020). Before the law was enacted, the United States government-insured its citizens through programs such as the Medicaid and Children’s health insurance. However, through these programs, those without children and some low-income parents remained uninsured. Therefore, the law ensures that all citizens are insured regardless of age, gender as well as income eligibility.
The law also contained provisions that intended to increase the accessibility of health insurance. When the law was enacted, it ensured that the coverage of children is extended to cover up to individuals of age 26 (Eguia et al., 2020). Therefore, the law led ensured led to increasing of medical coverage among the target population. Upon the enactment of the law, the number of young adults that got covered increased from one million to three million.
The new Act also contained provisions that prohibited denying or charging higher premiums due to the health conditions of an individual (Eguia et al., 2020). It enabled individuals to get insurance regardless of their health conditions and created a website where individuals could view their premiums and plan effectively for their payments. Finally, the law also imposed penalties on those who default the amount of their coverage as well as employers who failed to cover their employees. That helped in ensuring that most of the citizens in the employment sectors got insured.
Impact of Repealing the ACA
Repealing the Affordable Care Act by the federal state had a significant impact on the health care that included both negative and positive effects. For instance, repeali.

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).

The document discusses the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on the US healthcare system. It notes that the ACA has resulted in 20 million additional Americans having health insurance, protections for those with pre-existing conditions, and no cost for preventative care. Key impacts of the ACA include expanding insurance coverage which has increased the number of insured and allowed those with preconditions to be covered. Compensating healthcare providers based on value rather than volume is expected to improve quality. Medicaid expansion has provided more access to treatment and better health outcomes for low-income individuals. While progress has been made, more work remains to achieve truly high-quality, accessible, and affordable healthcare for all.

The document discusses the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and its impact on socioeconomic inequality from an interdisciplinary perspective. It analyzes the ACA through the lenses of economics, political science, and communication. While the ACA aims to expand access to healthcare, it has also increased costs and reduced access for some. There are also issues with unclear communication about the ACA and lack of cooperation from some state governments in implementing aspects of the law. The document argues that an interdisciplinary approach is needed to fully understand and address the complex problems posed by the ACA.
Health Care Reform
The document discusses health care reform in the United States, known as the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare. It was signed into law in 2010 with the main goal of ensuring affordable health insurance is available to all US citizens. Key aspects of the law include prohibiting denial of coverage due to pre-existing conditions for those under 19 and allowing coverage for children under parents' plans until age 26. The law also expanded Medicare and added new benefits while fighting fraud and improving care. Both positives and criticisms of the law are discussed.

The document discusses the effects and implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in the United States. It covers several topics:
- The goals of the ACA were to expand availability of health insurance and control costs, but it has faced many challenges in implementation.
- Hospitals and healthcare providers have had to change how they operate to focus more on quality of care rather than quantity of patients.
- The ACA could help address shortages in primary care doctors and nurses by increasing funding for education incentives, but it will take time for these measures to have an effect.
- Coverage expansions under the ACA have increased demand for care while supplies of doctors and other providers remain limited

The health care system in Colorado is a composition of medical professionals providing services such as diagnosis, treatment, as well as preventive measures to mental illness and injuries ("Healthcare policy in Colorado - Ballotpedia," 2019). Health care policy involves the establishment and implementation of legislation and other regulations that the states use to manage its health care system effectively. Further, this sector consists of other participants, such as insurance and health information technology. The cost citizens pay for medical care and also the access to quality care influence the overall health care providers in Colorado. Therefore, the need for the creation and implementation of laws that help the state maintain efficiency in the health sector in Colorado.
Problem Statement
The declining standards of medical care within the United States has caused significant concern in the world. Due to these rising concerns, there have been various policies implemented, leading to mixed reactions among the different states. Some of the active policies implemented offer a long-term solution to this problem including Medicaid and Medicare. After acquiring state control, the Republicans dismissed the idea to expand and create medical insurance for Medicaid in Colorado. Sustaining the structure of the health care payroll calls for the deductions from the employees and the employers, which may lead to loss of jobs and increased burden of expenditure (Garcia, 2019).
Identify the Methodology
The main objective of this policy plan is to investigate the role of legislation in the management of the health care sector in the United States. Due to the need for achieving in-depth exploration, this paper uses a combination of both qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection by addressing both practical and theoretical aspects of the research. Based on the answers that the policy requires, choosing survey as the research design. This method involves collecting and analyzing data from a few people who represent the principal group within health care. However, the survey method faces some challenges such as attitudes and perception of the health workers leading to the delimitation of the study. The target population for the study includes the nurses within the health sectors in Colorado. The selection of the participants involved in the use of stratified random sampling.

Key Provisions of the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act (ACA):
A Systematic Review and Presentation of
Early Research Findings
Michael T. French, Jenny Homer, Gulcin Gumus, and
Lucas Hickling
Objectives. To conduct a systematic literature review of selected major provisions of
the Affordable Care Act (ACA) pertaining to expanded health insurance coverage. We
present and synthesize research findings from the last 5 years regarding both the imme-
diate and long-term effects of the ACA. We conclude with a summary and offer a
research agenda for future studies.
Study Design. We identified relevant articles from peer-reviewed scholarly journals
by performing a comprehensive search of major electronic databases. We also identi-
fied reports in the “gray literature” disseminated by government agencies and other
organizations.
Principal Findings. Overall, research shows that the ACA has substantially
decreased the number of uninsured individuals through the dependent coverage provi-
sion, Medicaid expansion, health insurance exchanges, availability of subsidies, and
other policy changes. Affordability of health insurance continues to be a concern for
many people and disparities persist by geography, race/ethnicity, and income. Early
evidence also indicates improvements in access to and affordability of health care. All
of these changes are certain to ultimately impact state and federal budgets.
Conclusions. The ACA will either directly or indirectly affect almost all Americans.
As new and comprehensive data become available, more rigorous evaluations will pro-
vide further insights as to whether the ACA has been successful in achieving its goals.

This research paper outlines the idea of cost-effective health care, which minimizes 'unnecessary' patients tests and procedures that do not improve patient outcomes. The analysis focused on examining current trends in cost-effective health care, the rise of modern medical technologies involved in cost-effective health care, and the benefits of the U.S. implementing a cost-effective health care system. Mrs. McCallister and Dr. Pahwa were instrumental in the formation of this paper.

The Affordable Care Act has significantly reduced the uninsured rate in the United States and improved access to care, financial security, and health outcomes. Since the law was passed in 2010, the uninsured rate has declined by 43% due to reforms that expanded coverage. However, opportunities remain to further improve the US healthcare system by continuing to implement health insurance marketplaces and delivery system reforms, increasing subsidies, and reducing prescription drug costs. Overall experience with the ACA demonstrates that meaningful policy change is possible.

The document discusses the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), also known as Obamacare. It established protections for American citizens to make healthcare more affordable and accessible. The PPACA provides subsidies to lower costs and requires insurance companies to spend a minimum percentage on actual healthcare. It also increased the number of insured Americans, leading to a higher demand for physicians and changes in how hospitals are funded.

Introduction
Description of the Medicare Policy of 2019
Patient Safety and Quality Improvement Act (PSQIA) is one of the most important health care policies in the United States. The Act was passed in 2005 to protect health care professionals and workers who report unsafe conditions in hospitals. The policy was formulated to encourage the reporting of adverse events and malpractices that occur in health care centers. Such events may include medical errors and accidents. The law seeks to protect the identity of professionals who report such incidences while maintaining the patients’ confidentiality. To protect patient privacy, the law imposes fines for confidentiality breaches (Nash, 2011). The policy also bestows the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) with the responsibility to publish a list of patient safety organizations that record and assess patient safety data. The Office of Civil Rights also enforces the policy among national health care facilities. The primary goal of this policy is to encourage health professionals to improve the safety and quality of health care and to understand the underlying causes of hazards in the delivery of healthcare (Nash, 2011). The policy also seeks to encourage the sharing of such results in all states within a protected legal framework, thereby minimizing any risks that are associated with patient care. In so doing, the policy hopes to reduce potential risks that patients are exposed to.
Rationale and Professional Relevance
Maintaining patient safety and quality of care are some of the most important goals of healthcare professionals. The policy goes a long way in encouraging all health care professionals to observe safety and quality standards. The Institute of Medicine regards patient safety as indistinguishable from delivery of quality care (Mitchell, 2008). Health professionals should observe patient safety practices such as use of stimulators, bar coding, computerized order entry, and crew resource management to avoid errors and improve health care processes (Mitchell, 2008). In order to comply with the legislation, nurses and other professionals should focus their attention on defining and measuring quality long before national and state level stress on quality improvements. Nurses have the responsibility in patient safety to avoid medication errors and prevent patient falls.
Stakeholder Analysis
The success of a policy depends on stakeholder participation and compliance. The key stakeholders of the policy can be broadly categorized as internal or external stakeholders. Within a health care institution, internal stakeholders include health professionals such as nurses, physicians, pharmacists, and clinical officers. External stakeholders, on the other hand, include patients, community members, government re.

Presentation1
The document summarizes key aspects of the current US healthcare system and policies. It outlines the various public and private entities involved in healthcare financing, including Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers, and programs for veterans and native Americans. It discusses how the majority of healthcare is financed through public/private insurers and employers. The Affordable Care Act aimed to provide coverage for the uninsured. Future healthcare models may focus on reducing costs through telemedicine, accountable care organizations, and addressing patients' long-term needs.
ECH Campus: Therese Murray
The keynote address discusses Massachusetts' efforts to expand access to affordable health care through comprehensive reform and the use of health information technology. The speaker outlines how Massachusetts passed legislation in 2006 that reduced the uninsured rate from 10% to 2.6% by requiring individuals to obtain coverage and providing subsidies. While successful, rising health care costs remain a challenge. Massachusetts passed a second phase of reform aimed at reducing costs through principles like improved primary care access and adoption of health IT. The speaker emphasizes the role of technologies like electronic medical records and remote patient monitoring in transforming care delivery to improve outcomes and lower costs. Massachusetts aims to have all residents' health information digitized by 2014 to create a more efficient and transparent system.

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 ...

The document discusses two alternatives for funding the construction of the transcontinental railroad in the 19th century: 1) having the government abstain from funding and relying solely on private investment, or 2) having the government fund only one or two railroad lines to bid on and build based on public demand. While private funding alone would have built the railroad eventually, it would have taken much longer. Alternative 2 is presented as superior because it would satisfy public need for the railroad more quickly while also reducing the risk of companies misusing public funds.

Running Head: YOUTH IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM
YOUTH IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM 2
Introduction
Biblical point of view relies on the scriptures of God. The bible is a Christian holy book that gives the moral compass for what Christians engage in, whether in action or utterances. Through modern technologies and other methods, the secularized view of the criminal justice system in America has been influenced by the biblical concept.
Gaps and Omissions
Comprehending juvenile criminal justice, according to the biblical worldview, is to understand the leading cause of crime and human iniquities. Sin is a component of a biblical worldview. All crimes are treated as a sin, but not all sins are viewed as crimes. The juvenile criminal justice system would not exist if there were no crimes (Laurence, 2012). According to sinful human nature, crime always exists; hence the juvenile criminal justice system should be established to help in curbing crime.
The literature is mainly focused on the need to have a separate criminal justice system for juveniles but does not justify the punishment that juveniles ought to receive for crimes they commit. The literature gives detailed views on the topic, but it fails to conclusively articulate what should be done to reprimand crimes committed by youth. The bible is the book of Deuteronomy chapter 16:19 “do not pervert justice or show partiality ...” God is expecting impartiality those who serve distributive justice regardless of age, social status, or gender.
The biblical aim of justice is restoration, as illustrated in the stories such as Jacob and Esau. Human beings are equal in the eyes of the lord, meaning that justice has to be severed equally, although the literature focuses on separate justice for juveniles and adults. God created all human beings with equal value, but the literature seems to favor and try to treat juveniles who have committed similar crimes with adults differently. The literature does not mention that committing crimes against other people is committing a crime against God’s greatest creation.
Biblical Integration
Today youth are facing various risks of being involved in many forms of crimes that end up exposing them to the criminal justice system. Therefore, Christian adults are called upon to guide and bring significant transformation in the lives of the youth. Christians are called upon by God to exhibit unconditional love for juveniles. The church should advocate for fairness and justice for the young. Although some youth have a criminal record, the juvenile justice system's main goal should be to rehabilitate them. These youth can learn and grow from their mistakes. For Christians to create a just society, they should always restore a convicted offender back to society so that they can be integrat.

The health care system in Colorado is a composition of medical professionals providing services such as diagnosis, treatment, as well as preventive measures to mental illness and injuries ("Healthcare policy in Colorado - Ballotpedia," 2019). Health care policy involves the establishment and implementation of legislation and other regulations that the states use to manage its health care system effectively. Further, this sector consists of other participants, such as insurance and health information technology. The cost citizens pay for medical care and also the access to quality care influence the overall health care providers in Colorado. Therefore, the need for the creation and implementation of laws that help the state maintain efficiency in the health sector in Colorado.
Problem Statement
The declining standards of medical care within the United States has caused significant concern in the world. Due to these rising concerns, there have been various policies implemented, leading to mixed reactions among the different states. Some of the active policies implemented offer a long-term solution to this problem including Medicaid and Medicare. After acquiring state control, the Republicans dismissed the idea to expand and create medical insurance for Medicaid in Colorado. Sustaining the structure of the health care payroll calls for the deductions from the employees and the employers, which may lead to loss of jobs and increased burden of expenditure (Garcia, 2019).
Identify the Methodology
The main objective of this policy plan is to investigate the role of legislation in the management of the health care sector in the United States. Due to the need for achieving in-depth exploration, this paper uses a combination of both qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection by addressing both practical and theoretical aspects of the research. Based on the answers that the policy requires, choosing survey as the research design. This method involves collecting and analyzing data from a few people who represent the principal group within health care. However, the survey method faces some challenges such as attitudes and perception of the health workers leading to the delimitation of the study. The target population for the study includes the nurses within the health sectors in Colorado. The selection of the participants involved in the use of stratified random sampling.

Key Provisions of the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act (ACA):
A Systematic Review and Presentation of
Early Research Findings

Lucas Hickling
Objectives. To conduct a systematic literature review of selected major provisions of
the Affordable Care Act (ACA) pertaining to expanded health insurance coverage. We
present and synthesize research findings from the last 5 years regarding both the imme-
diate and long-term effects of the ACA. We conclude with a summary and offer a
research agenda for future studies.
Study Design. We identified relevant articles from peer-reviewed scholarly journals
by performing a comprehensive search of major electronic databases. We also identi-
fied reports in the “gray literature” disseminated by government agencies and other
organizations.
Principal Findings. Overall, research shows that the ACA has substantially
decreased the number of uninsured individuals through the dependent coverage provi-
sion, Medicaid expansion, health insurance exchanges, availability of subsidies, and
other policy changes. Affordability of health insurance continues to be a concern for
many people and disparities persist by geography, race/ethnicity, and income. Early
evidence also indicates improvements in access to and affordability of health care. All
of these changes are certain to ultimately impact state and federal budgets.
Conclusions. The ACA will either directly or indirectly affect almost all Americans.
As new and comprehensive data become available, more rigorous evaluations will pro-
vide further insights as to whether the ACA has been successful in achieving its goals.

It outlines the various public and private entities involved in healthcare financing, including Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers, and programs for veterans and native Americans. It discusses how the majority of healthcare is financed through public/private insurers and employers. The Affordable Care Act aimed to provide coverage for the uninsured. Future healthcare models may focus on reducing costs through telemedicine, accountable care organizations, and addressing patients' long-term needs.
ECH Campus: Therese Murray
The keynote address discusses Massachusetts' efforts to expand access to affordable health care through comprehensive reform and the use of health information technology. The speaker outlines how Massachusetts passed legislation in 2006 that reduced the uninsured rate from 10% to 2.6% by requiring individuals to obtain coverage and providing subsidies. While successful, rising health care costs remain a challenge. Massachusetts passed a second phase of reform aimed at reducing costs through principles like improved primary care access and adoption of health IT. The speaker emphasizes the role of technologies like electronic medical records and remote patient monitoring in transforming care delivery to improve outcomes and lower costs. Massachusetts aims to have all residents' health information digitized by 2014 to create a more efficient and transparent system.

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 ...

The document discusses two alternatives for funding the construction of the transcontinental railroad in the 19th century: 1) having the government abstain from funding and relying solely on private investment, or 2) having the government fund only one or two railroad lines to bid on and build based on public demand. While private funding alone would have built the railroad eventually, it would have taken much longer. Alternative 2 is presented as superior because it would satisfy public need for the railroad more quickly while also reducing the risk of companies misusing public funds.

Title of Paper
Your first paragraph (or two) should be an introduction to the broad topic of your paper.
Many people write the introduction after writing the rest of the paper! Information in your
introduction should provide a foundation for the hypotheses of your experiment. In your
introduction, your goal is to convince readers that your research topic is (a) interesting and (b)
important. You may choose to begin your paper with a story, quotation, or relevant statistics
about your topic. You can think of your paper as a story about your dependent variable.
You generally will present broad background information about the topic in the first
paragraph of so. You will include at least two sections in the body of your paper. You will
summarize relevant information from prior research studies in the first section, which we refer to
as the “literature review” portion of a paper. You will present your detailed research proposal in
the second section (details are provided below). Some overall formatting rules to keep in mind
are: (a) use Times New Roman font, size 12; and (b) double-space the entire paper.
Information about the Literature-review Section
Content. In the first section of your paper, you should provide a literature review of prior
research and theory that relates to your experiment. The information you present should be from
diverse sources (e.g., journal articles, book chapters, web sites). Make sure it is clear to the
reader how information is related to your experimental hypotheses or procedure. So, if you are
using their method, then talk about their method; if they found similar results, talk about their
results; if they operationally defined their DV like you want to, then talk about that, etc. To make
this section of your paper effective, you should explicitly relate information from various sources
to each other and to your proposed research. After you discuss past research, you should make it

YOUTH IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM 2
Introduction
Biblical point of view relies on the scriptures of God. The bible is a Christian holy book that gives the moral compass for what Christians engage in, whether in action or utterances. Through modern technologies and other methods, the secularized view of the criminal justice system in America has been influenced by the biblical concept.
Gaps and Omissions
Comprehending juvenile criminal justice, according to the biblical worldview, is to understand the leading cause of crime and human iniquities. Sin is a component of a biblical worldview. All crimes are treated as a sin, but not all sins are viewed as crimes. The juvenile criminal justice system would not exist if there were no crimes (Laurence, 2012). According to sinful human nature, crime always exists; hence the juvenile criminal justice system should be established to help in curbing crime.
The literature is mainly focused on the need to have a separate criminal justice system for juveniles but does not justify the punishment that juveniles ought to receive for crimes they commit. The literature gives detailed views on the topic, but it fails to conclusively articulate what should be done to reprimand crimes committed by youth. The bible is the book of Deuteronomy chapter 16:19 “do not pervert justice or show partiality ...” God is expecting impartiality those who serve distributive justice regardless of age, social status, or gender.
The biblical aim of justice is restoration, as illustrated in the stories such as Jacob and Esau. Human beings are equal in the eyes of the lord, meaning that justice has to be severed equally, although the literature focuses on separate justice for juveniles and adults. God created all human beings with equal value, but the literature seems to favor and try to treat juveniles who have committed similar crimes with adults differently. The literature does not mention that committing crimes against other people is committing a crime against God’s greatest creation.
Biblical Integration
Today youth are facing various risks of being involved in many forms of crimes that end up exposing them to the criminal justice system. Therefore, Christian adults are called upon to guide and bring significant transformation in the lives of the youth. Christians are called upon by God to exhibit unconditional love for juveniles. The church should advocate for fairness and justice for the young. Although some youth have a criminal record, the juvenile justice system's main goal should be to rehabilitate them. These youth can learn and grow from their mistakes. For Christians to create a just society, they should always restore a convicted offender back to society so that they can be integrat.

VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT 2
Jane Q. Student

Seminar in Security Management (2XXX)
Vulnerability Assessment: Era Church, City, State
Site Selection and Rationale
This vulnerability assessment was conducted at Era Church (“Era”), 429 State Street, City, State 90909, on the dates of September 25 - 28, 2017, and was followed up with subsequent interviews of relevant church personnel. The site was chosen for multiple reasons including the potential for a violent incident such as a mass shooting, and the potential for fraud or other financial crime. A vulnerability is defined as “weakness[ ] or gap[ ] in a security program that can be exploited by threats to gain unauthorized access to an asset” (Threat Analysis Group, 2017). Threats are events or persons, such as a natural disaster, fire, criminal act, or terrorist incident, that can exploit a vulnerability (Threat Analysis Group, 2017). A vulnerability assessment “evaluates all opportunities that may be exploited by a threat” and through a detailed process identifies areas where vulnerabilities can be mitigated to lower the risk (DiMarino, 2017). Risk is defined as “the potential for loss, damage or destruction of an asset as a result of a threat exploiting a vulnerability” (Threat Analysis Group, 2017). The vulnerability assessment at Era Church covers multiple areas to include physical, operational, technological, and financial vulnerabilities. While Era has taken measures to mitigate vulnerabilities, there are some recommendations in each area that could further mitigate risk.
Religion is a contentious and polarizing topic in the United States, which makes churches prime targets for groups or individuals who want to make a statement. Perhaps the most infamous church shooting in recent memory is when white supremacist Dylann Roof shot and killed nine African-American church members of Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, SC, on June 17, 2015 (Blinder & Sack, 2017). Roof brought a .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun into the church in a waist pouch, and attended the Bible study for approximately 40 minutes before he shot and killed the members using seven magazines and over 70 rounds (Blinder & Sack, 2017). This incident is just one of many violent incidents at places of worship. There is no sure-fire way to completely avoid incidents such as this shooting, but there are steps that can be taken to help minimize or avoid a large-scale incident.
In addition to the threat of violence, churches are also prime targets for fraud, both from internal and external threats. For instance, the Center for the Study of Global Christianity reports that in 2014 churches lost an estimated $39 billion to internal financial fraud (Thomason, 2016). Theft and embezzlement of church funds are two significant risks faced by faith-based institutions. (Thomason, 2016). In addition to an ins.

Author Note
The author note is typically used in manuscripts that will be submitted for publication. The author note may provide additional information regarding the affiliations of the authors. It is also used to acknowledge those who contributed to the study, but not at the level of authorship. Lastly, the author note typically includes contact information for at least one author (see APA guide p. 24, section 2.03 & sample paper on p. 41.)
Remember to format the author note using block format (no indents, left or right justification).
Abstract
The abstract is a brief (usually 100-150 words) summary of your experiment. What was your question? What did you do? What did you find? What is your conclusion/interpretation? Try taking the lead sentence or two (but not word-for-word) from your introduction, results and discussion and integrate them into your abstract. Additionally, add a sentence or two describing your procedure, especially if it differs from those typically used to study the phenomenon.
The abstract is page two. Nothing goes on this page except the abstract. Center the word "Abstract" on the page and format in bold-face type. Do not put the title of your paper on this page. Begin typing the abstract on the line directly below the heading.
Notice that the abstract is not indented, and is written in block format. It is also double-spaced. Typically, the abstract is one paragraph in length.
Keywords: type a few words (or phrases) that would be useful if someone was searching for a study similar to this one. For example, if you studied reaction time in a card sorting task your key words might be “card sorting,” “response time” and decision making. (Note: the word “keyword” is italicized and indented.)
Title
On the third page, you typically begin your introduction. Notice that the word "INTRODUCTION" does not appear at the top of the page as many of the other headings do. The title used is the same one that appears on the cover page.
The first paragraph should contain a description of the phenomena that you are studying. Make a general statement about the phenomenon and how it is typically measured. Also, talk about how one might manipulate or influence the outcome (i.e, what variables could potentially influence the results).
Subsequent research should describe previous research that examined the phenomena. These studies serve to provide the rationale for your study. What did the researchers do? What did they find? What did they conclude?
Do this for each study cited. Typically, one or more paragraphs are necessary to explain each study. Try to make the transition smooth from one paragraph to the next. Use transition words (see SIGNAL WORDS hand.

Virtual organizations refer to organizations whose employees are geographically spread and connect through phone, internet or email (Hebert, 2017). The concept of a virtual organization utilizes technology from a management perspective in which employees engage in different tasks to achieve the organization’s objectives. There are various benefits associated with virtual organizations. First, the owner of the business incurs lower overhead costs because a virtual organization needs no office space, furniture or paying for utilities (Shamsuzzoha & Helo, 2017). For example, an online education business only needs tutors and students. Secondly, employees are more satisfied due to the comfort of working from their own houses, for instance, tutors in a virtual institution can lecture students at the comfort of their homes. Lastly, the owner of the business can expand the business without having to worry about moving the many employees to a larger office.
However, a virtual organization is prone to many risks that hinder its effectiveness in terms of achieving its objectives. One of the risks is lack of cohesiveness in the organization. This is brought by the fact that the employees are spread and thus difficult to call for an emergency meeting in case an urgent need arises (Wohlers & Hertel, 2017). Secondly, there is a risk to reputation for customers may not perceive a virtual organization as a real company. Lastly, lack of social interaction discourages teamwork. Despite all these, there are various opportunities associated with virtual organizations such as the opportunity to reach the vast majority of the customers as well as an opportunity to change the strategy used by the business easily and for less cost.

Abstract
Abstracts are research tools that can help you readers determine if the scope of your article/essay will help them in their own research. In APA, abstracts are typically 150-250 words in length and provide an evaluative summary of the essay to follow. The personal opinion of the author is strictly prohibited in abstracts. Unlike a body paragraph, the first line of an abstract is not tabbed-in. For many student essays, especially in lower-numbers courses, an abstract will not be required; still, it is good to practice this skill.
Title of Essay
In APA style, the introduction of the essay should begin here, followed by the body paragraphs. APA is typically a more formal style than most students are accustomed to using in a writing course. For the purposes of this course, the level of formality should be based on the assignment. For example: APA asks that students always write in third person (avoiding words such as I, me, we, our(s), you, your(s), etc). Certain rhetorical modes, however, don’t cater well to third person (narrative and reflection writing are two such examples). In these situations, first person (I, me, we, our(s)) may be, and should be employed; second person (you, your(s)) should be avoided in all academic writing unless an essay is specifically designed to relay instructions (there are few assignments that will employ second person).
Like any essay, students should make sure their essays are formatted with one inch margins, with their text exclusively in Times New Roman 12-point font, and students should double space their lines. This document can be downloaded and used as a template wherein students may simply replace names, titles, dates, and so on with their own information.
The final page of this document will demonstrate a References page. If a student uses information from any source, that source must be identified within the text and listed on a References page. These citations should be listed in alphabetical order and, opposite to the way a normal paragraph works, the first line should be flush left and each following line should be tabbed in. Though there is really no substitute for a good APA Style Manual, students can refer to a citation generator such as www.citationmachine.net to ensure proper formatting. Any further questions should be directed to the instructor of the course.

BUS 325: Global Human Resource Management

Onboarding process is a usual process in the recent past in many business organizations. Onboarding seeks to ensure that new employees are easily embedded into the systems as fast as possible. New employees can adjust much more comfortable when they have better employees to ease them in. It helps new employee recruits to adjust to the social and performances. It is mainly aimed at maximizing success. Various vital steps need to be followed in ensuring that new recruits are effectively realigned into the organizational structure.
This is an essential procedure in organizational performances it ensures that new recruits take the shortest time possible to settle and establish better relations with other employees. It is the best way that a business organization can ensure that new recruits concentrate on the primary purpose of the organization rather than focus on how they can settle in their new working environment and social environment.
The onboarding process is an exceptionally chronological process where a beginner follows a given order of events in the organization. The first step is to study the new employee characteristics. It involves understanding their character and their ability to be integrated into the company operations smoothly. This process is very significant because the company can know quite earlier the behavioral adjustment that a given new employee can make to become successful.
The next step in the process is the deployment of newcomer tactics. Within this stage, the new employee develops a relationship with the existing employees within the organization to have a conducive business environment. The next step in the onboarding process is the readjustment of new employee tactics and behavior to conform to organizational culture and be in a position to work effectively towards the achievement of the set organizational goals.
One of the most critical elements of onboarding in a global environment is studying and understanding the characteristics of the new hire to be in a position to know how easy the new recruit will be able to adjust to the organizational culture and its operations. Another vital element in onboarding is the creation of an understanding between new recruits and the already existing employees within the organization to formulate a formidable team that can propel the organization to new heights.

Integration Between Christian Faith and Psychology

Abstract
This paper will discuss psychology and Christianity: Two disciplines that seem to be difficult subjects when discussing an integrated approach. There are some people who believe that, psychology has become one completely different subject than Christianity and both at times have lost all connection with the other. In addition, there are integrative models of disciplinary that think psychology is strictly a science and Christianity is solely based on faith and religion and the two cannot be integrated together. After further review of evidence, it seems that the integration approach for both disciplines are given by God and that they both should be integrated to create a more understanding of humanity. The focus of this paper is to describe the Allies” model and how it relates to integrating two disciplines; psychology and Christian faith. In addition, the strengths and limitations of the Allies model will be discussed. Also included are definitions of both subjects and views on different approaches towards this matter. Scriptures will be added that correspond with this approach, as well as, several factors that lead to the integration process of both disciplines. After further studies of the evidence of various disciplines, it seems like the “Allies” model best fits the relationship between psychology method and Christianity.
Integration between Christian faith and Psychology
Webster dictionary states that psychology is, “The science of mind and behavior and the study of mind and behavior in relation to a particular field of knowledge or activity” (Merriam-Webster, 2017). Whereas, Christianity is defined, “A religion based on the person and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, or its beliefs and practices” (Merriam-Webster, 2017). After the evidence from various disciplines of study, it seems that a person’s foundation is based on what we see and how we know. This leads a person to believe that it is crucial for Christian counseling to use both psychology and Christianity. There are several different methods that psychological theory and science use to gain knowledge. These are: “Logic,” “Empiricism,” “Revelation,” and “Hermeneutic” (Entwistle, 2015. P. 97). Whereas, experiments in psychology use deductive logic when testing a hypothesis. Inductive reasoning uses experiments that show a correlation by manipulating the variables. For instance, we use science to find out if a statement is true or false. An idea is a suggestion upon which an argument is based or from which a conclusion is drawn. For.

LETTER OF ADVICE 2
Dear Cassy and Jeremy,
Congratulations on your recent engagement. It’s such a great time in your life. My wife
and I have been married almost 8 years. I also just took a class on interpersonal communications
and would love to share with you some of what I learned in addition to some personal
experiences.2 Knowing how your partner communicates and uses verbal and non-verbal
communication is important in a relationship and will help in reducing miscommunications.
Know going in to your marriage that there will be conflict but learning how to manage or resolve
those conflicts will help in a successful marriage. I know you both love each other very much
and that will help get you through those difficult times.3
Interpersonal Relationships4
Interpersonal relationships are part of our everyday life. Getting married forms one of
the most important interpersonal relationships you will ever have. But with any relationship there
are barriers to effectively maintain those interactions. Our self-concept is developed through our
interpersonal relationships and changes over time. Emotional intelligence also has a great impact
on how effective a relationship will be. The amount an individual discloses of themselves in a
relationship can vary depending on the type of relationship and can have both negative and
positive effects. Interpersonal conflict is probably one of the most challenging aspects of a
relationship and managing these conflicts effectively is important to the relationship’s wellbeing.
2 While we usually discourage people from using the first person, this essay asks that the student write a personal
letter, so it is okay to be more casual here
3 This is a good introduction. It would be even stronger with a more definitive thesis statement. The Writing Center

Executive Summary
As with any new technology, risks can arise in e-commerce that is not common to those traditional “brick-and-mortar” stores. A huge concern for e-commerce applications is credit/debit card use. Major damage can be done to an organization if the credit/debit card transactions are not secured in terms of financial fraud, loss of consumer confidence, identity theft, or legal regulations.
Online Goodies provides custom promotional gifts to corporate customers and is an Internet-based company. Some of their products include mugs, computer accessories, t-shirts, and office décor. The majority of its income comes from online credit card purchase. They give their repeat customers a discount based on their annual purchase amount.
This report is to create a test plan for Online Goodies based on the OWASP standards. The report includes an overview and rationale of all of the tests performed including a brute force test, an authentication test, privilege escalation test, code injection test, and web application fingerprint test.

Types of Tests Performed
The least expensive way to reduce costs and risks and improve software quality is to catch deficiencies as early as possible. To understand the guidelines for testing the OWASP Testing Guide was used. The tests used in this plan are: Usability Testing, Unit Testing, Interface Testing, Integration Testing, Functionality Testing, Performance Testing, Security Testing, Authentication and Authorization Testing, Privilege Escalation Testing, and Web Application Fingerprint Testing.
Test Plan for Online Goodies Site
The purpose of his test plan is to ensure the Goodies site meets all of its business, functional, and technical requirements. The test plan describes the schedule of test activities, test plan strategy, activities, resources, and scope. This document will identify the features on the site to be tested, the testing tasks, the user assigned to each task, each testing environment, techniques, explanation of options, and risks.
Before actually testing the site, you have to create test cases. This is the sample data which will be used to go through the system. These can be created as soon as the requirements are received. Additional test cases should be created to test other aspects of the system due to its complexity.
Explanation of Testing
Usability testing is one of the most important aspects of building a website. Users are not going to take the time to try to use a website that is poorly designed. We are used.

- 1. RUNNING HEAD: Affordable Care Act 1 Affordable Care Act 2 ACA Healthcare Policy Busola Omolayole Walden University TN006 Policy and Regulation Supporting Informatics and Technology Integration 2/3/2020 Affordable Care Act (ACA) The affordable care act (ACA) policy was signed into law by the previous U.S. President Barack Obama in March of 2010 (HealthIT.gov., n.d.). The policy shares the responsibility of providing access to reasonable and good-quality health insurance by the government to individuals, employers in the United States. It is aimed at improving access and expanding
- 2. health insurance coverage to all U.S. citizens and combat healthcare spending and costs (Quadagno, 2019). Also, the policy increased accessibility to care and quality care services, which determine the overall health in the U.S. Health insurance companies cannot deny coverage of preexisting conditions and cannot increase premiums based on medical conditions. Impact of the ACA on System Implementation After the 2016 open enrollment period, 17.6 million uninsured citizens obtained coverage through ACA; the uninsured rate fell below 10 percent that same year. (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, n.d.). ACA has a significant impact on system implementation, according to industry experts. ACA supports Medicaid expansion. Make healthcare coverage more affordable and fair. The establishment of new health insurance marketplaces, also known as exchanges and implementation of market reforms, is another issue that is being addressed (HealthIT.gov.,n.d.). Providing care for people who live on a limited income or have a preexisting condition. Strengthening access to preventive and primary care. Increase healthcare quality at the same time decreasing careless expenses and increasing being accountable (PolicyMedical., n.d.). ACA has provisions that give system implementation a motive to build and enforce new policies that target increased efficiency (Ruffin, 2019). ACA is poised for consistent growth through value-based medications in the presence of evident uncertainty with a gradual repeal of the ACA for many payers in the care sector. Through growth in clinical care and public programs, being strategical in investments in public health (PolicyMedical., n.d.). By collaboration amongst the government, individuals, and employers, Americans can attain universal healthcare. ACA has Improved Outcomes and Efficiencies ACA has increased care coverage to millions of U.S. citizens. As a result, there is an improvement in care quality services since the healthcare cost is subsidized. Those with health insurance access better services in the United States
- 3. (Huang et al., 2019). The wide range of plans resulting from ACA increases efficiency in healthcare since people have good care options to choose, such as Medicaid and Medicare. Aims to make sure that everyone under the ACA will have optimal health care programs without the inefficiency. All will have access to electronic health records and be better informed about their health and be made more accountable for their healthcare. Policymakers offer consumers with vital healthcare information, especially about coverage options, thus make the workflow smooth than before. The policy cuts healthcare costs while enhancing patients' satisfaction. Patients can receive treatment services while at home; therefore, care accessibility is improved while promoting information sharing while explaining how patients can access their health information. Set guidelines for the implementation of qualifications and new details. Patient safety and confidentiality are protected, supported, and maintained. Organizational Policies and Procedures That Are in Place at My Healthcare Organization This policy at the organization level improves outcomes and efficiencies of ACA by ensuring value-based care services are provided (Ruffin, 2019). The ACA helps consolidated organizational databank of updated and new policies and procedures, along with out-of-date policies for reference when needed (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, n.d.). The organization will have team-based training, clear communication, and make sure that employees know updated and new policies and procedures. Have organizations work together effortlessly with external organizations through the set policies and procedures guided by the ACA. Have a library of resources that contains applicable legislation, standards, and regulations (HealthIT.gov.,n.d.). Discipline and streamline the process is managing the creation of policy that allows partnership on the formation, agreement, and assessment of internal policies, and with other organizations (PolicyMedical, n.d.). The ACA helps organizations be more efficient bin the
