Write a 6–8 page manuscript for publication, with at least five scholarly references, that describes your EHR initiative and its outcomes and provides recommendations for further improvements. After an EHR project is completed, consider sharing your process and results with other professionals. This is an important step in contributing to ongoing evidence-based practice efforts. For this assessment, you will develop a manuscript for publication that describes your EHR initiative and its outcomes and provides recommendations for further improvements. Examine several informatics journals and determine where your ideas fit best. Develop a scholarly conversation in the form of an APA paper for submission to a specific informatics journal of your choosing.

The center’s mission is to provide social adult day care services for adults 65 and older so they will be able to remain at home and stay active in the community. These services include therapeutic recreation initiatives, personal care, laundry services and transportation, which are reimbursed through Medicaid-managed long-term care plans ( MMLTCs).

Evolution of Long-Term Care Systems During the 1800s, and well into the 1900s, families took care of their own members whenever possible. Several generations lived together, with the younger generation taking care of the older and vice versa. Post 1900s, the joint family system started disintegrating. Interview at least five people of varying ages from different families to know their perspective on disintegration of joint family system. Based on your interview findings and learning from your readings, respond to the following questions: What factors led to the disintegration of the joint family system? What has been the impact of this disintegration on aging people and long-term care? Did disintegration have any benefits for health service organizations? Why or why not? At the same time this shift occurred in the family structure, health care organizations were experiencing continuous changes in their operating styles. The long-term care system took some time to catch up with the changing nature of businesses. In the 1990s and early 2000s, long-term care was seen to experience several turbulent changes, particularly related to its operations, management, and structure. Research the South University Online Library and the Internet to find information on the changes in the long-term care system in the United States and respond to the following questions: How have the operations, management, and structural changes of the 1990s and early 2000s impacted the long-term care system today? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the present long-term care system in the United States?

ECONOMICS Research Project A minimum of a 8-10 page paper, not including citations page, on US health care or health insurance industry. You may focus on the economics of the health care industry, economic impact of the governmental policy on the health care industry or related industries such as pharmaceuticals or nursing homes, etc. (must be closely related). You should discuss the following in the economic context: ? Market Structure – specifically how does market structure impact business decisions? ? Production Decision – how much to “produce”? How does profit maximization play a role? ? Evolution of a Competitive Market – how has the marketplace evolved over time? ? Impact of Governmental Regulation o Historic and current policy (Affordable Care Act, ACA or “Obamacare”) o What is currently being discussed for legislation? What is “TrumpCare?” o What impacts will this have on the economy as a whole? ? Make sure to cite the sources for the projections, such as Congressional Budget Office, Health and Human Services, etc. o Debate on the issue: merits and weaknesses of each side. ? Present both sides in the economic context! ? Application to our Microeconomics classes if applicable: o Supply and Demand o Governmental Policy o Strategic Behavior o Your own position and its economic defense o Market Structure o Asymmetric Information o Adverse selection and Moral Hazard If you would like to discuss the economic impact of COVID-19 on individual industries, such as oil, travel, hospitality, education, etc., instead of the traditional health care history and market as outlined in the original assignment, it would be perfectly acceptable. Keep in mind; you would need to discuss the economic effects of the disease. The DETERMINANTS are especially important in this context, and you need to discuss how they affected the markets and whether the determinants shifted the demand or supply curves. ? If you discuss the economic stimulus (either fiscal or monetary), you must present the merits and weaknesses of each side and present both sides in the economic context! Keep in mind the focus of this paper should be the economic impacts of healthcare or COVID. You need to demonstrate that you are able to APPLY the concepts covered in the class. I do not want a summary of articles or other people’s work. You need to show you know how to apply, analyze, synthesize, and evaluate in an economic context. Cheating: If you are caught cheating you will be receive a zero on the assignment and may be reported to the administration to face disciplinary action. Cheating includes plagiarism. To get started, watch the following videos: up to time marker 4:59 or more. Listen the following Podcast: . You need to cite at least four (4) sources besides these and the textbook. For more current articles and discussion, many of the major print publications, like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Forbes, The Economist, Time, etc., have devoted topics with links to other source. Governmental agencies, like www.hhs.gov (Health and Human Services), CBO.gov (Congressional Budget Office), CEA.gov (Council of Economic Advisors), etc., for statistics, projections and analysis could also be very useful. If you use Wikipedia, you MUST go to the primary sources. This assignment must be typed in MSWord and uploaded in BlackBoard. Use MLA format. You need to submit a citation page. I am hoping to pique some interest in you and these issues that will stay in the headlines for years to come. COVID’s historic economic and social impact will spawn numerous chapters in textbooks and whole books will be written about this (terrible) year.

Write a 4-6-page report for a senior leader that communicates your evaluation of current organizational or interprofessional team performance, with respect to prescribed benchmarks set forth by government laws and policies at the local, state, and federal levels.

Social Versus Human Capital This week’s first discussion forum will focus on the population of abused individuals. Abuse is a pervasive problem in our society. Although the forms of abuse, as well as the intensity and duration can vary from case to case, each abused person is tasked with dealing with the scars left from the abuse.  As you can imagine, this task can be very challenging to say the least. Using research to help you form an opinion, which form of capital (social or human capital) do you feel will have a greater influence over resources accessible to the abused?  Discuss which form of capital you would rely on for emotional support and help through difficult times if abused.  Explain your rationale. Chapter 3 of the course text defines these terms in more detail. Your initial contribution should be 250 to 300 words in length. Your research and claims must be supported by your course text and at least one other scholarly source.  Use proper APA formatting for in-text citations and references
