...After doing some research, I have come to the conclusion that Sprint is the best place to work. In this paper I will compare Sprint’s benefits, turnover rate, and financials to that of AT&T and Verizon Wireless. Once I have completed this paper, I am sure you will agree with me. I will begin with AT&T. AT&T has some wonderful benefits. It provides its employees with medical, dental, and vision plans. It gives employees a 401k savings plan/pension plan. Employees get paid time off. Students can get tuition reimbursement. And they also provide life/accident insurance. Employees are offered discounts on AT&T products and services. They are given adoption assistance, leave of absence, and ongoing employee training. They also have the option to purchase veterinary insurance for their pets, as well as auto and home insurance. Because of the Union, they provide excellent benefits. They give you a set schedule. They give you good pay with a chance to earn more through commission. According to AT&T Inc Company’s Financial information, their earnings are currently $1.25 million. The only downside that I have found is according to glassdoor.com, they have a 90% turnover rate. After the employee has made a sale, they are encouraged to give poor customer service. In March of 2011, Verizon was using some sought-after benefits to recruit new employees. They had 900 positions to fill. They were offering health, dental and vision insurance...

...Geico Total Rewards Program Francena Hicks Dr. David Fountaine,SPHR Talent Management HRM53201016 10/27/13 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to discuss the Geico employees’ Total Rewards Program and its alignment to the advantages of total rewards programs in general that are noted in the literature.

This analysis will include an evaluation of the effectiveness of the communication of Geico’s total rewards program based on the website’s descriptions of the benefits and include two recommendations for improvement to the program and/or its communication practices. By assuming that there are two weaknesses to the current plan, this paper will provide two improvements for these weaknesses to make employees happier.

...makes complex decisions to run the organization affectively. In health care organizations, management is usually in charge of making the decisions and uses certain strategies to come up with a plan that will improve and benefit the facility. When there are budget cuts within an organization, management must accommodate to meet the new standards and make a decision whether to eliminate or introduce health care needs better to suit the population. “Decision making is choosing from among alternatives to determine the course of action” (Liebler & McConnell, 2008, p. 147). In terms of the Medicaid program receiving a 15% budget cut, the organization must eliminate a health care need that will accommodate for the budget cut but also make a small impact on the wellbeing of the consumers. “The state Medicaid program will no longer pay for preventative or routine dental care for adults other than those with developmental disabilities” (Washington State Health Care Authority, 2013, para. 2). There is a set of decision-making tools used to determine this decision. The informed decisions toolbox helps managers over come barriers such as time pressures, preveived threats to evidence base, and determining the quality of the information (Rundall, Martelli, Arroyo, & McCurdy, 2007). This paper describes how using the toolbox affects accountability, a questioning organization, and knowledge transfer. The Toolbox To make an important decision that will affect the wellbeing of the...

...Background of Oral Health Care in Massachusetts Oral health is often considered separate from overall health. However, dental diseases are not only associated but can also lead to heart diseases, stroke, and diabetes. The significance of this correlation is due to the concept that the majority of care in cost excess can be attributed to these medical conditions. Some of the major oral health conditions of concern include tooth decay, gum disease, and oral cancers. As the population begins to shift towards an increase in elderly patients, they are living longer and keeping their teeth longer as well, resulting in an increase in the need for treatment of gum disease and other dental services. These problems can also be a complication of certain medications used to treat systemic diseases. The purpose of this paper is to improve access and quality to oral health care for elderly population in Massachusetts who are residents in Long Term Care facilities. (Clemencia M. Vargas, 2001) The elderly are identified in the U.S. Surgeon General’s report on oral health as one of the most vulnerable populations with regard to poor dental care. In Massachusetts 13.3% of the state’s population are considered seniors, defined as being 65 years of age or older. There are more than 143,000 residents age 85 and older and that number is expected to grow 52% by the 2030. About 45,000 Massachusetts residents live in long term care facilities and there is no one-size-fits-all model of oral health...

...Healthcare Utilization Paper Option A Tracie Y. Smith HCS/235 August 03, 2015 Mrs. Darnecia Garner Healthcare Utilization Paper The very mention of healthcare can send some people’s blood pressure up the charts. The debate over healthcare and who deserves what has been a constant ongoing issue since the early 1900s. There are some people who think medical care should be for the people who can afford to pay for it, and others think medical care should be a right to everyone. This paper will address five questions and provide the writers opinion on the matter. A recent healthcare legislation reform that has expanded access to care for individuals who otherwise could not afford it is, The Affordable Care Act. The passage of this act by the Obama administration during the early stages of his presidency puts consumers back in charge of their health care. Under the law, a new “Patient’s Bill of Rights gives the American people the stability and flexibility they need to make informed choices about their health” (US Department of Health and Human Services, 2015) . This act allows individuals to gain access to insurance through a marketplace or government subsidies; therefore creating access to services such as checkups, well woman exams, and health prevention for heart disease, and diabetes that many people were not getting because of costs. One way access may inhibited would be locating a physician who will accept...

The company has learned to grow and adapt to the many changes that it faced. In the first two years of its operation, the company had insurance agencies all across the US in states that included Colorado, the Dakotas, New Mexico, and Arizona. In 1868 they became the first US insurance company to open an office in Europe. However, with the changes in the business world brought about by World War 1, Germania discontinued doing business in Europe 1917. At the end of that same year their name changed to The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America. In 1911 they moved to Union Square in Manhattan and for 85 years this office would serve as the headquarters for Guardian. After the company saw many years of growth and expansion the decision was made to provide more regionalized home office functions. Therefore, in 1982 three branch offices were created in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Washington State. Guardian started out as a company that was based on mixed stocks and mutual but in 1925 they switched to a full mutual company. Therefore, there are no stockholders or private owners. Policyholders own Guardian and when the company experiences monetary growth; it is shared with the policyholders in the form of a dividend...
