Scenario Health organizations continue to face challenges relative to costs and revenue. Changes in reimbursement structure is most often cited as one of the biggest challenges for providers. As a result, leaders are developing new approaches aimed at creating additional revenue streams. Traditionally, hospitals have operated on profit margins that are often described as challenging. As a result of increased labor costs and a shift in payer mix, hospitals are being forced to do more with fewer resources. Consequently, hospitals are seeking new ways to improve their margins. Increasing patient volume is no longer effective in improving margins given the focus on value-driven care. As the CEO of XYZ hospital, you are asked to make a presentation to the board regarding ways to identify new streams of revenue. Your hospital operates in a low-income community with a significantly large population of residents enrolled in Medicare and Medicaid coverage. Critical issues such as length of stay (LOS) requirements and other financial threats are creating an urgent need for your organization to consider new revenue sources. After conducting research into the development of alternate revenue streams implemented by hospitals, you propose a new state of the art wellness center. Your task is to gain support for the wellness center. Instructions Create a PowerPoint presentation in which you highlight the following: Describe, in detail, the service offerings that you would include in your new wellness center. Discuss any potential barriers to implementing the wellness center. Explain how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall costs. Explain how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall quality of care. Describe the potential impact of the new wellness center on the underserved. Discuss the potential implications of the proposed revenue stream on payers, patients, and providers. Your presentation should include either speaker notes or voiceover narration. Research the concept of developing wellness centers, using credible sources to create your presentation. Rubric - Clear and thorough description of the service offerings of the new wellness center, including multiple credible sources. - Clear and thorough discussion of potential barriers to implementing the wellness center, including multiple credible sources. - Clear and thorough explanation of how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall costs, including multiple credible sources. - Clear and thorough explanation of how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall quality of care, including multiple credible sources. - Clear and thorough description of the potential impact of the new revenue stream on underserved, including multiple credible sources. - Comprehensive discussion of the implications of the proposed revenue stream on payers, patients, and providers, including multiple credible sources. - Presentation included co.

The document provides guidance for an assessment task that involves writing a 3-4 page proposal for billing changes at a physicians clinic. It outlines requirements for the proposal, including developing a revenue cycle process, recommending a pricing structure, explaining insurance contract negotiation factors, and how the changes would benefit physicians, the clinic, and patients. Resources on topics like revenue cycle management, billing, coding, and reimbursement are provided.
Inventive health engagement: persistently moving from volume to value
The document discusses the transition from volume-based to value-based healthcare. It explains that historically, healthcare providers were paid based on the number of services provided, incentivizing more care. However, there is now a push toward value-based care where providers are paid based on outcomes and quality rather than volume. The document outlines some key steps in this transition, including adopting patient-centric models, improving care with technology, and documenting processes to establish benchmarks and allow for ongoing analysis of outcomes and costs. Finally, it discusses the role of insurance companies in facilitating this transition toward a more sustainable healthcare system focused on value over volume.
New Challenges Facing the Hospital C Suite
Recent health care reform has paved the way for the industry to move from a traditional fee-for-services model to a value-based services model. emphasis is shifting from the volume of patients and services toward investing payer funds into care that adds value and improves health outcomes. With these reforms has come closer attention to physician incentives, initiatives to make the system more transparent, and attempts to openly engage patients. this has changed the landscape of the hospital at all levels, which poses new challenges for the hospital c-suite.

Chapter 4:
Understanding Costs
Unit Lesson
This unit will introduce you to the concept of costs in healthcare. For public service organizations and
healthcare organizations of all kinds, an understanding of costs is absolutely essential. The better that
healthcare managers understand costs, the more accurate their planning will be, and the better they will be
able to control spending for the organization within their areas of responsibility. A solid understanding of costs
will also improve a manager’s ability to make effective decisions on a day-to-day basis for his or her
department. Thus, for many reasons, you need to get a solid understanding of costs. That is what we will
seek to provide in Unit III.
First let us face reality, costs in healthcare are complicated. They are considerably more complicated than
costs in industries such as manufacturing, construction, or retail. One important emphasis of this unit is on
providing a clear understanding of key definitions for widely used cost terms. Such terms include direct costs,
indirect costs, average costs, fixed costs, variable costs, and marginal costs.
In this unit, you will come to realize that finance has its own language, and in order to be effective as a
healthcare manager, you must be able to speak that language. Otherwise you will find yourself in foreign
territory at management team meetings and board of directors meetings. You will also be at great
disadvantage when budget time rolls around each year. Accordingly, in this course, we will teach you the
language of finance so that you can communicate clearly with the chief financial officer (CFO) and other
members of management.
Another focus for Unit III is on understanding how costs change as service volumes change. The relationship
between costs and volume has a dramatic impact on the profits or losses incurred by an organization, and
this relationship is critical to effective decision making. Healthcare organizations must generate black ink on
the income statement in order to survive. That is true for both for-profit and not-for-profit entities, so you must
understand the impact of service volumes on costs.
The old story about the Long Island Tailor comes to mind here. It was said that the tailor lost money on every
single suit that he produced for clients, but he made it up in volume. Well, clearly that will never work. Losing
money on every healthcare service we provide, and then getting busier losing money, will close down the
hospital or clinic in a very short time. In healthcare, we need to find a way to provide services for our patients
at cost levels which allow some margin of revenues over expenses. This may not be true for every patient that
we treat, but it must be true for our patient population overall. Otherwise we could be in a lot of troubl ...

5 Ways to Mitigate ACO Risk Using Analytics
Many healthcare organizations seem to have been in perpetual pilot stage while experimenting with value-based payment models. Healthcare organizations are focusing their efforts in two primary areas: developing the skills to successfully manage at-risk contracts and, preparing for the considerable business and care delivery transformation necessary for true population health management. But what are the foundational competencies needed to take on risk? Healthcare organizations should consider the following 5 key areas: 1) at-risk contract management, 2) network management, 3) care management, 4) performance monitoring, and 5) improvement prioritization. The value of analytics in each of these competency areas is to prioritize limited resources on the highest impact area.
Complete a feasibility study based on the renovation of your inpat.docx
Complete a feasibility study based on the renovation of your
inpatient acute rehab facility where patients can obtain physical therapy while in a hospital setting and be medical managed. The facility will have new private rooms with state of the art equipment. A mobility garden for training and transitioning back into the community.
Using the feasibility study outlined in the Daniels and Dickson (1990) article as a model, and including a
minimum of four other scholarly sources, create a 6-8-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 contra.

The document discusses the healthcare industry in India. It notes that India's healthcare system is undergoing a transformation and growth over the next decade will be closely tied to reforms. The industry is expected to substantially evolve to help India achieve its long-term healthcare vision. It then provides an overview of the healthcare scenario in India including statistics on expenditure and infrastructure. It also discusses St. John's Medical College Hospital including its services, processes, pricing strategies, and quality initiatives to improve service delivery.
The 100-Percent Solution to Improving Healthcare’s Operating Margins
Healthcare organizations face unparalleled pressure to increase operating margins as they adapt to the revenue compression from COVID-19 and growing competition from insurers and digital disrupters. Yet, many health systems rely on outdated, revenue-centric cost accounting solutions that are ill equipped for strategic financial decision making. As a methodology for today’s complex healthcare environment, activity-based costing (ABC) can capture healthcare resource use at a granular level. With this service-level insight into clinical cost, ABC provides actionable intelligence to help organizations improve profitability and make strategic cost-reduction decisions. These comprehensive costing solutions give health systems a full understanding of cost across the care continuum—the only level of insight that will enable strategic cost transformation in the industry’s new normal.

Description of the Business
Wickham Hospital is a rural hospital that provides quality healthcare services to the local community. Our mission is to engage in the promotion of healthier lives by providing quality healthcare services. This is to be executed in a fiscally responsible way that promotes the social, physical, spiritual and psychological wellbeing of the community and patients it serves. Further, the hospital aims at serving all members of the community regardless of their gender, religion, race or age.
Among the services provided by the hospital include outpatient and inpatient services, emergency services, primary care, skilled nursing care, center for rehabilitation medicine, a lung cancer center and surgical services. Our main competitors are some hospitals established within the same community. Among these are Greenview Hospital, Jordan Memorial Hospital and Sloan Hospital. These hospitals offer outpatient and inpatient services as well as other services such as primary stroke services, rehabilitation for pediatric polio patients.
Recommendations to Stand out of the Competition
To stay on top of the competition, Wickham Hospital needs to invest and adapt to the most recent technology to ensure efficient delivery of quality medical services. Further, all healthcare personnel needs to undergo further training through platforms such as seminars and online educational forums. This will promote safe and efficient delivery of services to patients as they promote the quality of life within the community. Besides this, management needs to be keener with the appropriate allocation and deployment of resources to ensure that all areas are sufficiently covered (Enthoven, 2014).
How to Accommodate a Global Business Environment
The hospital currently serves the adjacent community and a few consumers from the outskirts. To broaden into the global business environment, a few strides should be taken. For instance, a website should be created describing the business and services offered. This way, international consumers will seek the business even when they come visiting within the local community. Further, the organization could seek for international investors whose partnership or involvement would attract international healthcare consumers towards the organization (Lunt & Mannion, 2014). The business ...
How to Optimize the Healthcare Revenue Cycle with Improved Patient Access
Despite pandemic-driven limitations, health systems can still find ways to optimize revenue cycle and generate income. When health systems improve and prioritize patient access through a patient-centered access center, they can improve the revenue cycle performance through decreased referral leakage, better patient trust, and optimum communication across hospital departments.
Rather than relying on traditional revenue cycle improvement tactics, health systems should consider three ways a patient-centered access center can positively impact revenue cycle performance:
Advance access.
Optimize resources.
Engage stakeholders.
Five Solutions to Controlling Healthcare's Cost Problem
When expenses exceed revenue, business has a financial problem. In healthcare, the focus has been on revenue for so long, we’ve lost sight of runaway costs brought about by high labor and technology expenses, inefficient use of resources, and supply waste. Recognizing the cost problem is a big first step toward solving it.
Five expense-controlling strategies can play a significant role in returning healthcare systems to a stronger financial position:
Refocus on labor management.
Manage employed physicians.
Change the patient encounter environment.
Augment standard approaches with technology.
Manage patient access and flow through the healthcare system.
With new, value-based payment structures, shrinking margins, and decreasing reimbursements, this insight offers some new ways to think about expense inefficiency and how to get costs under control.

The purpose of this paper is to give a brief outline of the pre-planning and strategic thinking in which an entrepreneur might consider before investing in or starting up a new hospital in the developing world.
There are numerous examples of hospital startups that were ill-conceived or poorly planned and have resulted in either a hospital that was partially constructed and abandoned or were completed and within two years failed in profitability and now sit idle. Other examples exist of underperforming assets. What went wrong? What could the investors have done to decrease their investment risk and increase the chances of the hospital being successful?Globalization of Healthcare.

· In this assessment, you will propose an economic initiative that presents an opportunity for improved care quality.
Scenario
As an emerging health care leader, the senior management has requested that you independently research and explore one of the economic opportunities that may be available in your care setting. This may be offering a new service line, working to improve a service line already offered, retiring an outdated or unprofitable service line, or any other economic initiative that you believe will be of benefit to your care setting in the short and long term. One example of this is a recently launched partnership with a local bicycle sharing company. Your care setting partners with them to host healthy community events that offer free screenings for early detection of various health issues. This helps fulfill some of your care setting's preventive and healthy lifestyle initiatives, while also potentially driving referrals to other services provided by your care setting. You have been asked to submit your proposal in the form of a 2–4-page executive summary that includes your proposed economic initiative, supporting economic data, and an analysis of the proposal's benefits for your department and for the care setting overall.
Directions
You have been asked to ensure that your report addresses the following. Note: The bullet points below correspond to grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure your work is, at minimum, addressing each of the bullets below. You may also want to read the scoring guide and the Guiding Questions: Executive Brief: Proposal of New Economic Opportunity document, linked in the Resources, to better understand the performance levels that relate to each grading criterion:
· Propose an economic initiative that presents an opportunity for your care setting at both the micro (departmental, neighborhood) and macro (organizational, community) levels that you believe will provide ethical and culturally equitable improvements to the quality of care.
· Analyze the supply and demand for your proposed economic initiative within contexts relevant to your care setting.

PART A
A health care delivery system is a mechanism meant to improve the health related needs of individuals. In the U.S, this involves meeting dramatic changes and improvement. The providers seek to for the cost-effective ways to offer their services to consumers. However, there are major factors that affect their delivery of healthcare. These are as follows;
· Good communication: Proper communication affects the delivery of healthcare system since communication brings understanding between the patients and healthcare provider. If good communication is not implemented the relation between the two parties may not be good and thus inefficient.
· Proper decision making: The decision making is critical for healthcare delivery system. The decision should be taken collectively for all patients to be served equally. Otherwise, it would have the advanced effect to the healthcare industry.
· Proper planning: Planning provides how, when, what, where to ensure delivery of healthcare in advance so as there is effective implementation of ideas. Otherwise, the healthcare system will not run effectively.
· Increasing population: Population growth impacts the healthcare system delivery because the services required to cater for the patients in demand will increase. The healthcare system may face inadequate facilities for delivery their services due to the growing number of patients (Palley, H. A.2016).
· Management of resources: The resources within the health care system are supposed to be divided in an efficient manner; otherwise, it might impact the profitability.
· Ethical issues: most of the organizations are affected by ethical problems such as noncompliance with the rules and norms as well as government regulations in delivering their healthcare services.
· Operating finance: This is a problem affecting healthcare delivery system. Sometimes, there are no funds to finance some of the basic assets required to provide efficient service to the patients. However, this can be reduced by making use of operation leasing. Operation lease is any kind of lease that is not capital lease. The lease does not transfer all the benefits and risks that are related to the ownership property to the lease. In most cases, the operation lease is normally used in short term equipment lease. The healthcare organizations should consider the following types of leases for ensure their operations are fully financed;
· Stretch lease: this is appropriate for organizations with low revenue. The lease allows them to pay low monthly payment and tax benefit available.
· Skip payment lease: this allows the organizations to avoid payment during low season of the year.
· Master lease: This allows the organizations to cater for the future assets or any emerging asset required without negotiations of new contract.

Submission Feedback:
You have a good start here but significant improvement is needed. Please make sure you are reviewing all my materials and taking the time to watch my video and review the rubric. Please read the rubric description - several areas you included were not well defined and lacked context/detail related to the rubric description. Make sure you continue to make the connection between your project and the mission, vision, and values of the facility. This is very important when you approach your board – they want to know how it fits into the overall objectives of the organization. I have provided some detailed feedback above that I think your project could benefit from. Think about what questions an investor or board would ask from a financial and clinical perspective and then answer them. The key is to answer questions before they are asked. One of these questions is, "How long will it take to make my money back?"

Assessment Instructions
In this assessment, you will propose an economic initiative that presents an opportunity for improved care quality.
Scenario
As an emerging health care leader, the senior management has requested that you independently research and explore one of the economic opportunities that may be available in your care setting. This may be offering a new service line, working to improve a service line already offered, retiring an outdated or unprofitable service line, or any other economic initiative that you believe will be of benefit to your care setting in the short and long term. One example of this is a recently launched partnership with a local bicycle sharing company. Your care setting partners with them to host healthy community events that offer free screenings for early detection of various health issues. This helps fulfill some of your care setting's preventive and healthy lifestyle initiatives, while also potentially driving referrals to other services provided by your care setting. You have been asked to submit your proposal in the form of a 2–4-page executive summary that includes your proposed economic initiative, supporting economic data, and an analysis of the proposal's benefits for your department and for the care setting overall.
Directions
You have been asked to ensure that your report addresses the following. Note: The bullet points below correspond to grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure your work is, at minimum, addressing each of the bullets below. You may also want to read the scoring guide and the Guiding Questions: Executive Brief: Proposal of New Economic Opportunity document, linked in the Resources, to better understand the performance levels that relate to each grading criterion:

Competitive risks.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic AlliancesCooperative strategyStrategic allianceCombination of resources and capabilitiesExchange and sharing of resourcesFirms leverage existing resourcesCornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy
Recognized as a viable engine of firm growth, cooperative strategy is a strategy in which firms work together to achieve a shared objective. Thus, cooperating with other firms is another strategy firms use to create value for a customer that exceeds the cost of providing that value and to establish a favorable position relative to competition.
A strategic alliance is a cooperative strategy in which firms combine some of their resources and capabilities to create a competitive advantage. Thus, strategic alliances involve firms with some degree of exchange and sharing of resources and capabilities to co-develop, sell, and service goods or services. Strategic alliances allow firms to leverage their existing resources and capabilities while working with partners to develop additional resources and capabilities as the foundation for new competitive advantages. To be certain, the reality today is that strategic alliances have become a cornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic Alliances, continuedJoint ventureEquity strategic allianceNonequity strategic alliance
The three major types of strategic alliances include joint venture, equity strategic alliance, and nonequity strategic alliance.
A joint venture is a strategic alliance in which two or more firms create a legally independent company to share some of their resources and capabilities to develop a competitive advantage. Joint ventures, which are often formed to improve firms’ abilities to compete in uncertain competitive environments, are effective in establishing long-term relationships and in transferring tacit knowledge. Because it can’t be codified, tacit, or implied, knowledge is learned through experiences such as those taking place when people from partner firms work together in a join.

5 Ways to Mitigate ACO Risk Using Analytics
Many healthcare organizations seem to have been in perpetual pilot stage while experimenting with value-based payment models. Healthcare organizations are focusing their efforts in two primary areas: developing the skills to successfully manage at-risk contracts and, preparing for the considerable business and care delivery transformation necessary for true population health management. But what are the foundational competencies needed to take on risk? Healthcare organizations should consider the following 5 key areas: 1) at-risk contract management, 2) network management, 3) care management, 4) performance monitoring, and 5) improvement prioritization. The value of analytics in each of these competency areas is to prioritize limited resources on the highest impact area.
Complete a feasibility study based on the renovation of your inpat.docx
Complete a feasibility study based on the renovation of your
inpatient acute rehab facility where patients can obtain physical therapy while in a hospital setting and be medical managed. The facility will have new private rooms with state of the art equipment. A mobility garden for training and transitioning back into the community.
Using the feasibility study outlined in the Daniels and Dickson (1990) article as a model, and including a
minimum of four other scholarly sources, create a 6-8-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.

The 100-Percent Solution to Improving Healthcare’s Operating Margins
Healthcare organizations face unparalleled pressure to increase operating margins as they adapt to the revenue compression from COVID-19 and growing competition from insurers and digital disrupters. Yet, many health systems rely on outdated, revenue-centric cost accounting solutions that are ill equipped for strategic financial decision making. As a methodology for today’s complex healthcare environment, activity-based costing (ABC) can capture healthcare resource use at a granular level. With this service-level insight into clinical cost, ABC provides actionable intelligence to help organizations improve profitability and make strategic cost-reduction decisions. These comprehensive costing solutions give health systems a full understanding of cost across the care continuum—the only level of insight that will enable strategic cost transformation in the industry’s new normal.

Description of the Business
Wickham Hospital is a rural hospital that provides quality healthcare services to the local community. Our mission is to engage in the promotion of healthier lives by providing quality healthcare services. This is to be executed in a fiscally responsible way that promotes the social, physical, spiritual and psychological wellbeing of the community and patients it serves. Further, the hospital aims at serving all members of the community regardless of their gender, religion, race or age.
Among the services provided by the hospital include outpatient and inpatient services, emergency services, primary care, skilled nursing care, center for rehabilitation medicine, a lung cancer center and surgical services. Our main competitors are some hospitals established within the same community. Among these are Greenview Hospital, Jordan Memorial Hospital and Sloan Hospital. These hospitals offer outpatient and inpatient services as well as other services such as primary stroke services, rehabilitation for pediatric polio patients.
Recommendations to Stand out of the Competition
To stay on top of the competition, Wickham Hospital needs to invest and adapt to the most recent technology to ensure efficient delivery of quality medical services. Further, all healthcare personnel needs to undergo further training through platforms such as seminars and online educational forums. This will promote safe and efficient delivery of services to patients as they promote the quality of life within the community. Besides this, management needs to be keener with the appropriate allocation and deployment of resources to ensure that all areas are sufficiently covered (Enthoven, 2014).
How to Accommodate a Global Business Environment
The hospital currently serves the adjacent community and a few consumers from the outskirts. To broaden into the global business environment, a few strides should be taken. For instance, a website should be created describing the business and services offered. This way, international consumers will seek the business even when they come visiting within the local community. Further, the organization could seek for international investors whose partnership or involvement would attract international healthcare consumers towards the organization (Lunt & Mannion, 2014). The business ...
How to Optimize the Healthcare Revenue Cycle with Improved Patient Access
Despite pandemic-driven limitations, health systems can still find ways to optimize revenue cycle and generate income. When health systems improve and prioritize patient access through a patient-centered access center, they can improve the revenue cycle performance through decreased referral leakage, better patient trust, and optimum communication across hospital departments.
Rather than relying on traditional revenue cycle improvement tactics, health systems should consider three ways a patient-centered access center can positively impact revenue cycle performance:
Advance access.
Optimize resources.
Engage stakeholders.
Five Solutions to Controlling Healthcare's Cost Problem
When expenses exceed revenue, business has a financial problem. In healthcare, the focus has been on revenue for so long, we’ve lost sight of runaway costs brought about by high labor and technology expenses, inefficient use of resources, and supply waste. Recognizing the cost problem is a big first step toward solving it.
Five expense-controlling strategies can play a significant role in returning healthcare systems to a stronger financial position:
Refocus on labor management.
Manage employed physicians.
Change the patient encounter environment.
Augment standard approaches with technology.
Manage patient access and flow through the healthcare system.
With new, value-based payment structures, shrinking margins, and decreasing reimbursements, this insight offers some new ways to think about expense inefficiency and how to get costs under control.

PART A
A health care delivery system is a mechanism meant to improve the health related needs of individuals. In the U.S, this involves meeting dramatic changes and improvement. The providers seek to for the cost-effective ways to offer their services to consumers. However, there are major factors that affect their delivery of healthcare. These are as follows;
· Good communication: Proper communication affects the delivery of healthcare system since communication brings understanding between the patients and healthcare provider. If good communication is not implemented the relation between the two parties may not be good and thus inefficient.
· Proper decision making: The decision making is critical for healthcare delivery system. The decision should be taken collectively for all patients to be served equally. Otherwise, it would have the advanced effect to the healthcare industry.
· Proper planning: Planning provides how, when, what, where to ensure delivery of healthcare in advance so as there is effective implementation of ideas. Otherwise, the healthcare system will not run effectively.
· Increasing population: Population growth impacts the healthcare system delivery because the services required to cater for the patients in demand will increase. The healthcare system may face inadequate facilities for delivery their services due to the growing number of patients (Palley, H. A.2016).
· Management of resources: The resources within the health care system are supposed to be divided in an efficient manner; otherwise, it might impact the profitability.
· Ethical issues: most of the organizations are affected by ethical problems such as noncompliance with the rules and norms as well as government regulations in delivering their healthcare services.
· Operating finance: This is a problem affecting healthcare delivery system. Sometimes, there are no funds to finance some of the basic assets required to provide efficient service to the patients. However, this can be reduced by making use of operation leasing. Operation lease is any kind of lease that is not capital lease. The lease does not transfer all the benefits and risks that are related to the ownership property to the lease. In most cases, the operation lease is normally used in short term equipment lease. The healthcare organizations should consider the following types of leases for ensure their operations are fully financed;
· Stretch lease: this is appropriate for organizations with low revenue. The lease allows them to pay low monthly payment and tax benefit available.
· Skip payment lease: this allows the organizations to avoid payment during low season of the year.
· Master lease: This allows the organizations to cater for the future assets or any emerging asset required without negotiations of new contract.

Supporting TopicsStrategic alliancesCooperative strategiesCompetitive risks
In order to achieve this objective, the following supporting topics will be covered:
Strategic alliances;
Cooperative strategies; and
Competitive risks.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic AlliancesCooperative strategyStrategic allianceCombination of resources and capabilitiesExchange and sharing of resourcesFirms leverage existing resourcesCornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy
Recognized as a viable engine of firm growth, cooperative strategy is a strategy in which firms work together to achieve a shared objective. Thus, cooperating with other firms is another strategy firms use to create value for a customer that exceeds the cost of providing that value and to establish a favorable position relative to competition.
A strategic alliance is a cooperative strategy in which firms combine some of their resources and capabilities to create a competitive advantage. Thus, strategic alliances involve firms with some degree of exchange and sharing of resources and capabilities to co-develop, sell, and service goods or services. Strategic alliances allow firms to leverage their existing resources and capabilities while working with partners to develop additional resources and capabilities as the foundation for new competitive advantages. To be certain, the reality today is that strategic alliances have become a cornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic Alliances, continuedJoint ventureEquity strategic allianceNonequity strategic alliance
The three major types of strategic alliances include joint venture, equity strategic alliance, and nonequity strategic alliance.
A joint venture is a strategic alliance in which two or more firms create a legally independent company to share some of their resources and capabilities to develop a competitive advantage. Joint ventures, which are often formed to improve firms’ abilities to compete in uncertain competitive environments, are effective in establishing long-term relationships and in transferring tacit knowledge. Because it can’t be codified, tacit, or implied, knowledge is learned through experiences such as those taking place when people from partner firms work together in a join.

Serial KillersFor this assignment you will review a serial kille.docx
Serial Killers
For this assignment you will review a serial killer's case in depth. The killer you choose to review will also be the subject of your Week 5 final assignment, so keep your research material handy.
First, choose
one
of the following serial killers:
David Berkowitz ("Son of Sam") taunted police over a year and shot 15 people (6 died) in New York City. The movie "Summer of Sam" was about this time.
Gary Ridgway (the "Green River Killer") holds the American record for most victims. He confessed to killing 48 over a 16-year period but is suspected of having killed many more!
Wayne B. Williams is believed to be the killer of 24 children and young men in Atlanta, though there is still some doubt.
John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo were the "DC snipers" who shot 13 people (ten died) over three weeks in the Washington DC area in 2002.
Ted Bundy: Confessed to almost 30 murders (there may have been more). He was known for being smart and good-looking, and acted as his own lawyer.
Jeffrey Dahmer: His case captured worldwide attention after his capture, mostly due to his habit of keeping parts of his victims long after their deaths, as well as cannibalism and necrophilia.
Kristen Gilbert: An example of a female serial killer, she was a nurse who killed hospital patients in her care.
For this assignment, create a report in Microsoft Word that covers the following points:
Summarize the case: time period, location, number of victims, etc.
Describe the killer's background, methods, and area of operation.
How did the killer select his or her victims? Was there anything that the victims did to provoke the killer?
By analyzing all of the above information, you should now be able to propose a
three-part typology
and explain your analysis. Your typology should describe the killer's
motivation, location, and organized or disorganized factors. For instance, John Wayne Gacy might be described as a
Power/Control, local, organized killer.

SESSION 1Michael Delarosa, Department ManagerWhat sugg.docx
SESSION 1
Michael Delarosa, Department Manager
What suggestions do you have for improvement in regards to training new supervisors?
Make sure there are opportunities for hands on problem solving. Too much of our training is theory
and supervisors need to be focused on the real-world problems that come up.
What challenges do supervisors in our plants encounter that training would help them resolve?
I'd say that a lot of the challenges we see relate to the diversity on the line. There are a lot of different
types of people working at CapraTek and they don't always play well together.
What are the most important abilities for supervisors in our plants?
Well… the first thing that comes to mind is the ability to find information. Whether it's technical
information or answers for the people who report to you. Another key ability though is the ability to
acquire technical expertise. No one comes in knowing it all, but the ability to gain necessary
knowledge is very important.
What knowledge does a new supervisor need?
A solid understanding of the job itself. Supervisors provide a lot of training to new employees, so they
need to know our systems and processes inside and out.
Should training be conducted face to face, online, or a combination of both?
I'd say a combination. There are some topics that don't really need a classroom experience, but
others where the face-to-face interaction provides as much as the actual training materials. If it had to
be one or the other, I'd definitely say face to face.
Leland Butler, Shift Supervisor
What suggestions do you have for improvement in regards to training new supervisors?
Don't think you can cover this stuff once and be done with it. I went through supervisor training when I
was promoted, but I've gotta admit, I don't remember much of it. That kind of stuff doesn't always
stick unless you're doing it. Having an opportunity to be in the job and then get training on what you're
actually dealing with is better than sitting in a training room listening to someone talk about theories
and policies.
What challenges do supervisors in our plants encounter that training would help them resolve?
Well… like I said, being able to apply the leadership and supervisory ideas in realistic situations. I'm a
hands-on kind of person and it's always better if I can do something, so maybe like getting training on
performance reviews or some of the paperwork we're all dealing with. That would be helpful.
What are the most important abilities for supervisors in our plants?
Communication and flexibility. Hands down. You need to be able to shift gears decisively and
communicate with your team.
What knowledge does a new supervisor need?
He or she needs to know what the role of their team is to the division. How it all fits together. A good
supervisor needs to be able to communicate to the people who report to him what's going on and why
things are the way they are. So, he's got to be in .

MODIFICATIONS TOBASIC FUNCTIONAL
ANALYSIS PROCEDURES IN SCHOOL
SETTINGS: A SELECTIVE REVIEW
Janet Ellis* and Sandy Magee
University of North Texas, Denton, TX, USA
This review describes applied behavioral research involving functional analyses conducted in public
school settings. Functional analyses in public school settings often require added conditions. The
modified conditions described herein include changes to experimental designs, antecedent changes that
include task variation, tasks included, idiosyncratic variables, physiological conditions, and modified
escape conditions. Finally, consequent modifications cover peer attention, tangibles, varied attention,
and altered escape. Copyright # 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
INTRODUCTION
The primary body of functional analysis (FA) literature has historically focused on
persons with developmental disabilities in institutional/residential settings who
engaged in severe self-injurious behavior (SIB). Mace and Lalli (1991) noted that
interventions based on FAs conducted in experimental settings under highly
controlled analog conditions may be effective only to the extent that those analog
conditions match the subject’s natural environment. Johnston (1993) recommended
that, once a procedure has been experimentally developed, its value and applicability
should be assessed under practical/natural conditions. Further, passage of Public Law
105-17, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), in 1997 mandated that a
‘functional behavioral assessment’ be conducted on students who exhibit significant
behavior and adjustment problems. For at least these reasons, FA research has moved
beyond the tightly controlled laboratory setting and into more natural environments
involving more diverse populations. Development of behavioral assessments of
problem behavior in school settings had empirical roots—for example, 36 years ago
Thomas, Becker, and Armstrong (1968) noted that classroom teacher’s disapproval
increased rates of student’s disruptive behavior. These assessments allowed effective

Shared Reading Framework
Follow this framework when viewing the video lessons for Days 1,2, & 3 from Ms. Chan’s class. Compare and contrast Ms. Chan’s teaching to what is listed on this page.
(Whole)
Read aloud a shared or big book to the students. Label each step and clearly state how you will accomplish this.
·
Introduce the book: Explain what you will say to the students to introduce the book to them, if you choose to point out concepts of book, concepts of print, predicting, etc.
·
Picture Walk: Explain what you will do to provide a Picture Walk for the students, telling all that you will say to the students.
·
Read the book aloud: Explain how you will read the book aloud to the students, will you stop, on what pages, what will you say.
·
Students’ Responses: Develop a set of both literal and higher-order thinking questions to elicit student responses, use Bloom’s or Webb’s as a guide to questions.
(PART)
Direct Instruction (Name the reading skill and explain what it means)
· Explain:
(I do) Explain to the students what they will be learning and why they should learn it. Explain the skill they will be learning and explain “how it works” Summarize the skill in your own words. Teacher tells students everything you want them to learn
(objectives).
· Demonstrate
: (I do) Show the students what you would like them to do. Demonstrate to them what they will be doing to help them learn the skill. You must explain what you will do to demonstrate the skill you will be teaching. PROVIDE EXAMPLES and link to your explain step.
· Guide:
(We do, more teacher responsibility, some student responsibility) Guide the students to discuss and/or attempt the skill you just demonstrated. Explain how you will guide the students to allow them opportunities to try to apply the skill. Give support and feedback. Teacher brings students into discussion about objective and gives guidance and feedback
. (Feedback must be accurate, positive and encouraging, but also firm.)
· Practice:
(We do, more student responsibility) Explain specifically how you will guide the students to practice applying the skill by allowing them to work together with less teacher support but still feedback.
(WHOLE)
· Application:
(You do) (Read the book again and this time ask the students to apply what they learned about the reading skill to the book you are rereading.) Explain what you will have the students do to apply the skill to the text. The students should demonstrate that they can meet objective in this step.
· Students Reflect:
(You do) Develop a set of 6 – 8 questions you would ask the students to reflect on what they learned about the reading skill and what they learned from the book you read to them. This is a good time to ask questions that would meet.
Self-disclosureDepth of reflectionResponse demonstrates an in.docx
Self-disclosure/Depth of reflection

Viewpoints and interpretations are insightful and well supported. Clear, detailed examples are provided, as applicable. Demonstrates an open, non-defensive ability to self-appraise, discussing both growth and frustrations as they related to learning in class, as well as implications for future learning.
Analysis/Connection to reading and outside experiences
In-depth synthesis of thoughtfully selected aspects of experiences related to the course topics. Makes clear connections between what is learned from readings, outside experiences and the topics. The reflection is an in-depth analysis of the learning experience, the value of the derived learning to self or others, and the enhancement of the student’s appreciation for the discipline. Demonstrate further analysis and insight resulting from what you have learned from readings, includes reference to at least two readings other than those assigned for class.
Connection to course objectives and BSN outcomes
Synthesize, analyze and evaluate thoughtfully selected aspects of ideas or issues from the class discussion as they relate to the course learning outcomes and the BSN program outcome. (Review your syllabus and students handbook to help make connections)

Seemingly riding on the coattails of SARS-CoV-2, the alarming sp.docx
Seemingly riding on the coattails of SARS-CoV-2, the alarming spread of monkeypox across western Europe and the United States has filled the news cycle through the summer of 2022. Monkeypox is an orthopoxvirus, similar in presentation to smallpox and chickenpox (Varicella zoster). In contrast to the related poxviruses, monkeypox has been reported to spread by sexual contact and direct skin-to-skin contact, as well as through the traditional respiratory droplet route. While there is currently no effective treatment for infected individuals, two vaccines with good efficacy are available to help stem the spread of the disease. Likewise, individuals that have been vaccinated against smallpox with vaccinia virus have some protection against contracting monkeypox. While changes in sexual behavior among vulnerable populations has so far limited the outbreak, the disease is still spreading throughout the country and has caused a handful of deaths.
What is the life cycle of monkeypox, and how exactly is it spread? What does the fact that vaccination against smallpox provides some protection against monkeypox indicate about this virus? Also, what does the spread of monkeypox reveal about the susceptibility of the population to smallpox, a disease that has been considered eradicated worldwide since the late 1980s?

Mission statement
“Empower students to use knowledge, skills, and strategies to become productive members of society who use higher level thinking”
Vision statement
Students will “Own Their learning”
Strategies that embed the mission and vision
It is possible for a school to convey its ethos, mission, goals, and values to its students, staff, and parents in a variety of different methods. A school's prospectus or handbook should present information in a way that is clear and easy to comprehend, taking into account the diverse ethnic group in the area and maybe translating the text into many languages. The website of the school is the spot that makes the most sense to transmit any sort of information regarding the institution as a whole, including its ethos and so on. The internet is the first place that people search for information in this day and age since it can be accessed from anywhere in the world and every school now has its own personal website. Again, in order to experience the true environment of the school, it is necessary to combine this mode of communication with a trip to the location itself.
4
Strategy 1
Communication
Repetitive communication of the mission and vision ensures it is embedded (Jensen et al., 2018)
Communications will target all stakeholders
Technology tools will be used to facilitate communication to all stakeholders

A well-defined statement that provides an explanation of the line of work that an individual plans to pursue over the entirety of his career is an example of a career objective. It is essential for each and every student to articulate their aspirations for their future careers. They are able to devise more efficient action plans as a result of this.

Strategy 2
Helping students establish career goals
Students will be encouraged to work hard to actualize the goals
Successful careers enable students to become productive members of the society (Şenol & Lesinger, 2018)

Finding and employing the appropriate faculty members is possibly the single most significant factor that will determine the institution's long-term success. Even though conducting interviews and making hires is seen by many as an art form, there are tried-and-true strategies that the school may employ to boost its chances of finding the proper people to work there. These approaches are suppo.

Segmented Assimilation Theory and theLife Model An Integrat.docx
Segmented Assimilation Theory and the
Life Model: An Integrated Approach to
Understanding Immigrants and Their Children
Lissette M. Piedra and David W Engstrom
The life model offers social workers a promising framework to use in assisting immigrant
families. However, the complexities of adaptation to a new country may make it difficult
for social workers to operate from a purely ecological approach. The authors use segmented
assimilation theory to better account for the specificities of the immigrant experience. They
argue that by adding concepts from segmented assimilation theory to the life model, social
workers can better understand the environmental Stressors that increase the vulnerabilities
of immigrants to the potentially harsh experience of adapting to a new country. With these
concepts, social workers who work with immigrant families will be better positioned to
achieve their central goal: enhancing person and environment fit.
KEY WORDS: acculturation; assimilation; immigrants; life model; second generation
Nearly a century ago,Jane Addams (1910)
observed that immigrants needed help
integrating their European and American
experiences to give them meaning and a sense of
relation:
Power to see life as a whole is more needed in
the immigrant quarter of the city than anywhere
else Why should the chasm between fathers
and sons, yawning at the feet of each generation,
be made so unnecessarily cruel and impassable
to these bewildered immigrants? (p. 172)
The inability of some immigrant families to
integrate the cultural capital from the world left
behind with the demands of the new society creates
a gulf of experience between immigrants and their
children that can undermine the parental relation-
ship. Today, the issue of family cohesion in the face
of acculturative Stressors remains central to the im-
migrant experience and creates a sense of urgency
because it is so linked with the success of the second
generation. The size of the immigrant population
and the role their children \vill play in future labor
markets (Morales & Bonilla, 1993; Sullivan, 2006)
moves the problem from the realm of the person
to the status of a larger public concern.
Immigrant families are rapidly becoming the
"typical" American family. More than one in seven
families in the United States is headed by a foreign-
born adult. Children of immigrant parents are the
fastest growing segment of the nation's child popula-
tion (Capps, Fix, Ost, Reardon-Anderson, & Passel,
2004).The U.S. Census Bureau (2003) reported that
slightly more than 14 million children (approxi-
mately one in five) live in immigrant families; the
percentage is even higher (22 percent) for children
under the age of six (U.S. Census Bureau, 2001).
At a structural level, these changing demographics
create large-scale and long-range effects that bear
on many social services and many issues of social
pohcy (Sullivan, 2006). Specifically, the population
growth of native-born children in nonwhite.
Select a local, state, or national public policy that is relev.docx
Select a local, state, or national public policy that is relevant today in the local, regional, or national news
Examples:
Local: community or urban growth (examples: results of rezoning, reuse of public structures, closed down school/public buildings that will convert to private business enterprise).
State: Private land converted to public spaces (examples: airports, road, or highway usage).
Federal: Gun policy, drug policy, immigration (examples: effects on jobs, background checks, cultural changes in communities).
Identify how the policy was formulated from a historical standpoint and identify which stakeholders were involved in the process.
Appraise the position whether the policy creates a benefit for one group (or stakeholder) while other groups experience disadvantages or negative challenges because of public policy implementation.

School Effects on Psychological Outcomes During Adolescence.docx
School Effects on Psychological Outcomes During Adolescence
Eric M. Anderman
University of Kentucky
Data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health were used to examine school-level
differences in the relations between school belonging and various outcomes. In Study 1, predictors of
belonging were examined. Results indicated that belonging was lower in urban schools than in suburban
schools, and lower in schools that used busing practices than those that did not. In Study 2, the relations
between belonging and psychological outcomes were examined. The relations varied depending on the
unit of analysis (individual vs. aggregated measures of belonging). Whereas individual students’
perceptions of belonging were inversely related to depression, social rejection, and school problems,
aggregated belonging was related to greater reports of social rejection and school problems and to higher
grade point average.
Research on school-level differences during adolescence often
has focused on nonpsychological outcomes, such as academic
achievement and behavioral issues, instead of on psychological
outcomes (Roeser, 1998). Indeed, research on school-level differ-
ences in nonacademic variables is quite rare. The purpose of the
present research was to examine school-level differences in a
variety of psychological outcomes, using a large nationally repre-
sentative sample of adolescents.
School Effects on Student Outcomes
Although there is an abundant literature on effective schools,
most of the research in this literature has focused on academic
variables, such as achievement, dropping out, and grade point
average (GPA; e.g., Edmonds, 1979; Miller, 1985; Murphy, Weil,
Hallinger, & Mitman, 1985). This literature generally indicates
that schools that are academically effective have certain recogniz-
able characteristics.
Some of these studies have examined differences between pub-
lic schools and other types of schools. For example, some research
indicates that students who attend public schools achieve more
academically than do students who attend other types of schools
(e.g., Coleman & Hoffer, 1987). Other research suggests that there
may be a benefit in terms of academic achievement for students
who attend Catholic schools compared with non-Catholic schools
(Bryk, Lee, & Holland, 1993). Lee and her colleagues (Lee,
Chow-Hoy, Burkam, Geverdt, & Smerdon, 1998) found that stu-
dents who attended private schools took more advanced math
courses than did students who attended public schools. However,
they also found specific benefits for Catholic schools: Specifically,
in Catholic schools, there was greater school influence on the
courses that students took, and the social distribution of course
enrollment was found to be particularly equitable.
In recent years, psychologists have started to become interested
in the effects of schooling on mental health outcomes (e.g., Boe-
kaerts, 1993; Cowen, 1991; Roeser, Eccles, & Strobel, 1998;
Rutter,.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

ScenarioHealth organizations continue to face challenges relativ.docx
- 1. Scenario Health organizations continue to face challenges relative to costs and revenue. Changes in reimbursement structure is most often cited as one of the biggest challenges for providers. As a result, leaders are developing new approaches aimed at creating additional revenue streams. Traditionally, hospitals have operated on profit margins that are often described as challenging. As a result of increased labor costs and a shift in payer mix, hospitals are being forced to do more with fewer resources. Consequently, hospitals are seeking new ways to improve their margins. Increasing patient volume is no longer effective in improving margins given the focus on value-driven care. As the CEO of XYZ hospital, you are asked to make a presentation to the board regarding ways to identify new streams of revenue. Your hospital operates in a low-income community with a significantly large population of residents enrolled in Medicare and Medicaid coverage. Critical issues such as length of stay (LOS) requirements and other financial threats are creating an urgent need for your organization to consider new revenue sources. After conducting research into the development of alternate revenue streams implemented by hospitals, you propose a new state of the art wellness center. Your task is to gain support for the wellness center. Instructions Create a PowerPoint presentation in which you highlight the following: Describe, in detail, the service offerings that you would include
- 2. in your new wellness center. Discuss any potential barriers to implementing the wellness center. Explain how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall costs. Explain how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall quality of care. Describe the potential impact of the new wellness center on the underserved. Discuss the potential implications of the proposed revenue stream on payers, patients, and providers. Your presentation should include either speaker notes or voiceover narration. Research the concept of developing wellness centers, using credible sources to create your presentation. Rubric - Clear and thorough description of the service offerings of the new wellness center, including multiple credible sources. - Clear and thorough discussion of potential barriers to implementing the wellness center, including multiple credible sources. - Clear and thorough explanation of how the new wellness center can potentially affect overall costs, including multiple
