How is your communication affected when you are surrounded by a culture that is different from your own?

THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF USING TRADITIONAL, ELECTRONIC, AND SOCIAL MEDIA FOR HEALTH CARE COMMUNICATION

  1. How is your communication affected when you are surrounded by a culture that is different from your own? Recall conflicts that you have experienced and consider how communication either helped or hindered the situation. How would a different communication approach have affected the conflict?
  2. Have you ever been in a situation in which you have had to communicate with someone who did not speak the same language as you? How did you handle the situation? Please give two answers using examples and scenarios and try to relate it to health communication in 2a, 2b and 2c in 200 words each!
  3. Describe when you would use each of the response styles listed (Evaluating Judging and Advising, Interpreting, Supporting, Questioning, and Paraphrasing) and how you would know whether or not each was effective. Please give two answers and try to relate it to health communication 3a and 3b in 200 words each!
  4. Discuss what steps you could take to manage conflict more effectively with someone who has a different style than your own. Can anyone give an example of how they plan to apply this in either your professional or personal life? Please give two answers using examples and scenarios and try to relate it to health in 4a, 4b, and 4c in 200 words each!

Do you think HSAs can help improve health care cost, quality, and access? Why or why not?

DO YOU THINK HSAS CAN HELP IMPROVE HEALTH CARE COST, QUALITY, AND ACCESS?

The United States has arguably the most advanced health care in the world. And yet, a large proportion of Americans do not have access to this care due to its high cost. Providers, consumers, and the government have long searched for a way out of this paradoxical situation. HSAs offer one solution.

The American health care system is complex. A part of the population has access to health care through Medicare and Medicaid. Another part simply pays for care out of pocket. A substantial proportion of the population uses third-party payers to pay for care.

Payers have reacted to the rising costs of care by introducing various gatekeeper mechanisms. These have not been popular with consumers who see them as restrictive. The American population is aging and the need for care is likely to increase over the next decade.

While the earnings of health care professionals have been increasing, insurance premiums have also increased. Among hospitals, many are non-profit organizations offering substantial charity care. But for-profit and non-profit hospitals alike must show return on investment to remain viable. Providers must also factor reimbursement policies of payers into their decisions, sometimes even clinical decisions. These groups of stakeholders—patients, providers, payers, and the government—have different goals and different responses to the rising cost of care.

Based on your understanding, answer the following:

  • In your opinion, can HSAs be aligned to the expectations of all these groups?
  • Do you think HSAs can help improve health care cost, quality, and access? Why or why not?
  • Cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.

What are the eligibility requirements and coverage of Medicaid for the categories of low-income adults, pregnant women, and the aging/blind/disabled in the state where you live?

.DEBATE THE EFFICACIES OF PUBLIC VERSUS PRIVATE-BASED QUALITY INITIATIVES. WHAT ROLES DO EACH PLAY IN THE QUALITY OF U.S. HEALTH CARE?

I have 4 questions to be answered. This does not require any writing format. all 4 questions can be combined into 3 pages, and any sources used should be cited. This is a nursing program, but the class is healthcare finance and ethics so answers should be geared towards healthcare.
1.Debate the efficacies of public versus private-based quality initiatives. What roles do each play in the quality of U.S. health care? How would the elimination of one aspect affect the other?
2. After reading the Kaiser Family Foundation summary on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, state why or why not you believe the act should remain in law, or which pieces should be reversed. Then describe two pieces of the act that you were unaware was part of the act and how that may affect you as a citizen.
3. What are the eligibility requirements and coverage of Medicaid for the categories of low-income adults, pregnant women, and the aging/blind/disabled in the state where you live?. (Use Georgia) Do you consider the eligibility requirements reasonable or restrictive? Do you consider the coverage reasonable or liberal? What are the benefits and drawbacks to keeping these populations insured through Medicaid? Consider both direct and indirect factors.
4. Review the CMS.gov 30-Day Mortality and Readmission Data website. Review at least two local hospitals (Any can be used) and see how they compare to state and national benchmarks. How and why may a consumer or a health care professional use this data to make decision about their next hospitalization? Will reporting this data have an impact on hospitals bottom line in addition to financial penalties from CMS? Give at least two examples of how this data may be used and what type of impact if may have if at all on the hospitals.
I did input 8 sources because it only allows the input of numbers, but I would require at least 1-2 sources per question. Please let me know ASAP if this can be done and what more information is needed.
These are just discussion questions, but sources used should be cited.

What are the types and uses of this new technology across the continuum of health care?

WHAT ARE THE TYPES AND USES OF THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY ACROSS THE CONTINUUM OF HEALTH CARE?

 

Only what is highlighted is what is needed the 2 in purple are the slides I need completed I only need 2 slides per  question.  a total of 4 slides only. I do need speaker notes as well. All information needed is highlighted. Please feel free to ask me any questions. Thank you!

 

Your Learning Team has been selected to consult for a prestigious health care organization. Your ultimate goal is to develop a proposal to present to the board of the organization. At their last meeting, the board asked your team to prepare a proposal on how the organization might adopt a technology trend to improve the quality of the health care delivered to organization members. The topic is National health care information network

Specifically, the board wants to know the following about the technology you recommend:

·         What are the types and uses of this new technology across the continuum of health care?

·         What are the anticipated effects of this technology on health care?

·         What are the privacy risks and security safeguards of this technology?

·         What strategies will be used to evaluate system effectiveness?

·         What is management’s role in this technology initiative?

·         What are the benefits of this new technology that support quality initiatives?

·         What are the educational and training needs for the use of this technology in health care?

The board requires the proposal to be in the form of a 10- to 15-slide Microsoft®PowerPoint® presentation withdetailed speaker notes. Your notes must consist of complete sentences and paragraphs, and represent the words you would speak if you were giving an in-person presentation.

From this list, select a new technology trend, which you will submit for your facilitator’s approval in Week Two:

·         Telemedicine

·         Optical imagery for diagnosing disease

·         Health care robots

·         Neural engineering

·         Intelligent mobile devices

·         National health care information network

·         A future technology trend of your choice
