...Supply and Demand Debra Nelson HCS 552 02/06/2012 John Pew Supply and Demand Over the past forty years, health care spending grew at a rate faster than the economy. The outcome of this increased spending meant that portion of the government budget spent on health increased threefold. The escalated spending was not devoted to one area, but permeated the share of national income devoted to health care. This ongoing spending growth pervaded every fragment of the health system, including public service programs and civic insurance platforms ("Key Issues in Analyzing Major Health Insurance Proposals", 2008). As the country continues in its economic crises, it is crucial for today’s leadership in the government and in management of health care system to meet the needs of the public while maintaining cost in order to avoid economic failure. Healthcare programs will need careful examination to determine if the treatment ordered is necessary for the care of patients. Healthcare program assessments are different from business program assessments. According to "Basic Economy" (207-2012), in typical business, “the demand for a product is the amount that buyers are willing and able to purchase” (Quantity demanded and Supplied). In healthcare, everyone at some point will require medical care. Some will need more than others. Some will need inexpensive versus expensive treatment modalities. But other issues will play into cost. Insurance premiums, co-pays, government restrictions...

...Nurse Shortage in Nursing Homes Nursing shortages have been an issue in the health care field for a few years now. This shortage is seriously impacting nursing homes and the elderly in our society today. With a shortage of 8.1% of nurses in 2008, it is important to understand what is happening to nurses (Addressing the Nursing Shortage, 2010). To help one understand the nurse shortage more, this paper will discuss resource scarcity, stakeholders, economic flows, changes in supply and demand, pricing decisions, along with a business proposal. The business proposal will discuss where the market has a shortage of providers, list of services the firm will provide, explanations of set prices, and who will be hired and how much one will be paid. Resource Scarcity and Stakeholders Economic Flows According to Jacobs & Rapoport, “Economic flows can involve both money and services.” There are a couple of economic flows that could affect the nursing home and the nursing shortage. The first would be how the nursing home provides health care to the elderly. If the firm does not provide good service to the patients and customers, most nurses and patients would not want to stay at the nursing home. The second economic flow that could affect a nursing home is money. If the nursing home does not have the right amount of money, patients are not going to get the service they require. The same could be said about the nursing shortage in nursing homes. If the money is not there, then the nurses...

...HEALTH CARE CAN BE HEALTHY Discrimination, the economy and the health care are all topical issues on everyone lips these days. However, since the health care system has a significant effect on us whether we are the consumer - the patient or the producer- the health service provider; and especially this topic has been buzzing in the air lately, I will offer solutions as how to address the unhealthy issue of our health care system.. It would be remiss of me not highlight, that to generate solutions, the cause of problems must be carefully identified, analyzed and prioritized. The problems are many and compounded. Likewise, the solutions to better the health care system are varied and complex. Nonetheless health care is of paramount importance not only because the health care costs take a heavy chunk of the USA Gross Domestic Product and no other costs measure closely to this. Solutions will include several committed and patient stakeholders at the helm; and some element of risk to effect the change and transition. Firstly, a recommendation is a need to make health insurance affordable and accessible to all. There are too many horror stories of people perishing because of lack or limited health insurance. Already the current government is making a transition to reform the health care system provide the public with affordable insurance. A debatable move, but health care should be a public good and the onus should be on any government to invest and commit to healthcare. It works...

It is best to resolve this type of issue because patient privacy in health care is very important.

Protecting a patient’s privacy by way of disclosing personal information and is not to be released without personal formal consent. Also, of employees discussing patient information on the job to people with no knowledge of the patient or even off the job.

...1. State the administrative agency, which controls the regulation. Explain why this agency and your proposed regulation interest you (briefly). Will this proposed regulation affect you or the business in which you are working? If so, how? 2. Describe the proposal/change. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued proposed regulations that add excise tax on the sale of medical devices under Internal Revenue Code.

...It is hard to imagine life without health insurance. If you have any type of medical problem that requires attention, and you have appropriate health care insurance, you can be cared for in the finest of private hospitals. You can get great treatment and your ailments, depending on the severity, can be treated as soon as possible. Doctors, physicians and surgeons are willing to put out a big effort if they know that they are dealing with patients who are insured and have the money to go under extensive medical treatment. But imagine life without such luxuries. For example, what happens if a relative requires much needed surgery, but does not have health insurance to cover the procedure? What happens if a lack of medical insurance prevents you or your family from seeing a doctor, which could result in health problems that had not been identified but could have been treated before they became life threatening? These scenarios may seem far-fetched, but these types of situations happen to people who lack health coverage everyday. There is a true story about a patient who was insured and diagnosed with treatable cervical cancer. Unfortunately, she lost her job and with it her insurance. She was then unable to see her private doctor, and was turned away from other hospitals because ?cancer treatment is not considered an emergency in a patient who can?t pay? (?Help for D.C.?s Uninsured?). The woman later died at her home without ever being treated. This example raises the question, since...

...History of Health Care Reform Transcribed from a talk given by Karen S. Palmer MPH, MS in San Francisco at the spring, 1999 PNHP meeting) Late 1800’s to Medicare The campaign for some form of universal government-funded health care has stretched for nearly a century in the US On several occasions, advocates believed they were on the verge of success; yet each time they faced defeat. The evolution of these efforts and the reasons for their failure make for an intriguing lesson in American history, ideology, and character. Other developed countries have had some form of social insurance (that later evolved into national insurance) for nearly as long as the US has been trying to get it. Some European countries started with compulsory sickness insurance, one of the first systems, for workers beginning in Germany in 1883; other countries including Austria, Hungary, Norway, Britain, Russia, and the Netherlands followed all the way through 1912. Other European countries, including Sweden in 1891, Denmark in 1892, France in 1910, and Switzerland in 1912, subsidized the mutual benefit societies that workers formed among themselves. So for a very long time, other countries have had some form of universal health care or at least the beginnings of it. The primary reason for the emergence of these programs in Europe was income stabilization and protection against the wage loss of sickness rather than payment for medical expenses, which came later. Programs were not universal to start...
