  • Value and Consumer Preference. Prior to engaging
    in this discussion, read Chapters 1 and 2 in the
    text and review any relevant Instructor Guidance.
    It is suggested that you also review the
    recommended articles to glean any helpful
    information. The idea that value depends on
    consumers preferences is often considered
    radical. In your initial post, analyze the
    economic theories that are germane to the
    provision of health services, and comment on how
    one or two specific model(s) might explain the
    framework or context of patient/consumer
    preference with regard to the health care
    services they have experienced. Compare and
    contrast economic challenges and incentives
    within health cares organizational models that
    might influence patient preference. How would
    value (both in quality and impact of care) differ
    where you have increase in access and decrease in
    reimbursement rates set by most insurance
    companies?

  • The Importance of Economics for Health Care
    Leaders. Prior to engaging in this discussion, be
    sure to review the Chapters 1 and 2 in the text
    as well as any relevant Instructor Guidance. It
    is suggested that you also review the recommended
    articles to glean any helpful information. In the
    present paradigm, it has become evident that
    operational leaders and strategic leaders in
    health care must be able to appraise how
    economics impacts health care in the United
    States. Furthermore, it is critical successful
    leaders to possess an understanding of the
    variables and nuances that shape how supply and
    demand in this heavily regulated industry so they
    may observe trends and opportunities that lead to
    a functional organizational system.

  • Feasibility Study Topic and Area of Interest. A
    detailed feasibility study is an essential
    element in the process of diligently assessing
    any  health services business venture. According
    to data released by the Bureau of Labor
    Statistics, the health care industry is currently
    one of the fastest growing fields in the United
    States, and it is projected that the field will
    grow by 22 percent by 2018. This is compared to
    an 11 percent average growth rate for all other
    industries (United States Department of Labor,
    2012). Whether you are considering  medical
    service lines, an expansion of your current
    operation, or any other type of health care
    business venture, a feasibility study is an
    essential planning tool for any future health
    care leader.

  • Finance, Risk, and Cost. Prior to engaging in
    this discussion, read Chapters 3 and 4 from the
    text review any relevant Instructor Guidance. It
    is suggested that you review the recommended
    resources to glean any helpful information. You
    are an associate director in a 300-bed hospital
    located in an urban area. For the purposes of
    your presentation, the location will be the
    closest city to your current residence (this may
    be your city of residence). A sum of money is
    available for investment in the facility. You
    have been tasked by the hospital CEO to present a
    possible investment scenario in which you
    renovate your existing facility, expand the
    current facility, or clinically integrate your
    electronic health records (EHRs). There is only
    enough money to fund one of the potential
    projects. Your primary sources of data and
    information may or may not be reliable. Please
    see the Finance, Risk, and Cost document for
    the data needed to create your presentation.

  • Economic Analyses and Interventions. Prior to
    engaging in this discussion, please read Chapters
    13 and 14 in the text and review any relevant
    Instructor Guidance. It is suggested that you
    review the recommended articles to glean any
    helpful information. Analyze and comment on
    economic analyses of health administrative
    innovations that are germane to the provision of
    health services. How have these innovations
    become more important in health care delivery
    within the context of the Affordable Care Act?
    Develop a list of similarities and differences
    between cost benefit analysis and cost
    effectiveness analysis as they pertain to
    specific health care service demands. Compare and
    contrast economic challenges and incentives as
    they relate specifically to cost benefit and cost
    effectiveness analyses.

  • Pricing and Transparency. Prior to engaging in
    this discussion, please read Chapter 11 in your
    text and review any relevant Instructor Guidance.
    It is suggested that you review the recommended
    articles to glean any helpful information.
    Analyze the role of the paradigm shift under the
    Affordable Care Act and discuss how transparency
    will play a greater role in pricing of health
    care. In your opinion, will consumers begin to
    demand increasing transparency in pricing?
    Provide at least one peer-reviewed reference
    outside of your textbook to support your
    position. Do you believe accrediting commissions
    (e.g., the Joint Commission) will demand greater
    transparency in pricing? How will these demands
    be weighted as compared to individual consumers
    demands? Again, be sure to cite research that
    supports your statements.

  • Applying Game Theory to Strategy. Prior to
    engaging in this discussion, please read Chapter
    16 in the text and review any relevant Instructor
    Guidance. It is suggested that you review the
    recommended articles to glean any helpful
    information. Imagine that you own a pharmacy in
    your area. One of your competitors launches a We
    will not be undersold campaign, which promises
    consumers 150 of any difference between its
    prices and the advertised prices of other
    pharmacies. Evaluate the social issues in your
    community as well as the economic culture that is
    influencing this type of pricing competition.
    Develop and describe a microeconomic model that
    is responsive to the service demands of your
    market. Based on your conclusions, how would you
    react to this situation and with what business
    strategy would you approach this? How might you
    apply game theory to the creation of your
    strategy?

    discussion, please read Chapter 12 in the text
    and review any relevant Instructor Guidance. It
    is suggested that you review the recommended
    articles to glean any helpful information.
    Imagine that you run a nursing home facility in
    your area. Analyze and comment on the role public
    policy has in the economic aspect of running this
    type of health services center. Compare and
    contrast the economic challenges and incentives
    this type of health care model presents. What are
    some of the ways in which you could inform or
    signal potential consumers that your nursing home
    is of high quality? Evaluate the social-cultural
    issues that influence the consumers of this type
    of health service. Which of your proposed methods
    are most apt to be reliable signals that
    significantly communicate to consumers so they
    are able to make more informed decisions?

    Eldridge (2011) articles, and review any relevant
    Instructor Guidance. It is suggested that you
    also take a moment to review a few of the
    recommended articles to glean any potential
    helpful information. Opportunism in health care
    is especially perceptible in the health insurance
    markets. Consider the area in which you live,
    specifically your state and local communities.
    Evaluate the social-cultural issues that are
    influencing adverse selection in insurance
    markets. Propose some strategies for reducing
    adverse selection in health insurance within
    these markets. Develop a microeconomic model that
    is responsive to your local service demands.
    Communicate how these issues are relevant to the
    economics of the greater U.S. health care system.
    What are the future implications with the
    Affordable Care Act?
