Financing of Health Car

With coinciding concerns about health care costs and the imperative to improve quality of care, health care providers and others face difficult decisions in the effort to achieve an appropriate balance. Such decisions often are addressed in the policy arena. How do policymakers evaluate which health care services should be financed through government programs? How do ethics-related questions and other considerations play into this evaluation process? Is it possible to contain costs and provide accessible, high-quality care to all, or is the tension between cost and care inherent in the U.S. health care delivery system? These questions are central to health care financing decisions in the United States.
For this Discussion, you will focus on the policy decision-making process that determines what types of care are covered by public and private insurers and the ethical aspects of such financial decisions.
To prepare:
• Read the following case study, “Hard Economic and Finance Choices in US Healthcare” (Milstead): ◦Case Study 1: Hard Economic and Finance Choices in US Healthcare
Applied economics is all about managing scarce resources. Economics is an amoral field of study: it is neither moral nor immoral. Morality and values are determined by individuals at the personal level and by group consensus or majority opinion at the national level. State and federal governments determine the ‘will of the people’ about how to use scarce resources for the good of a nation.
The U.S. health care system is an exemplar of scarcity: primary care physicians, substance abuse treatment centers, trauma centers, registered nurses, and the money to pay for goods and services. Finance is all about how to pay for goods and services. The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPAC) is appointed by the Executive branch of the federal government to make decisions about what the Medicare program will and will not pay for. In this role, MedPAC makes decisions about medications, procedures and treatments. Examples of MedPAC decisions include coverage for left ventricular assistive devices as a destination therapy, coverage for bariatric surgery, and in 2010, coverage of the drug Provenge™. By law, MedPAC is not allowed to use price or cost of any treatment in its decision-making processes.
•Review the information in the Washington Post article “Review of Prostate Cancer Drugs Provenge Renews Medical Cost-Benefit Debate” in the Learning Resources.
•Consider how policy decisions currently are made about what will and will not be paid for and what changes, if any, could improve the process.
•Reflect on how the Washington Post example illustrates the tension between cost and care.
Post your analysis and assessment of the ethical and economic challenges related to policy decisions such as those presented in the Washington Post article. How does this type of situation contribute to the tension between cost and care? Substantiate your response with at least two outside resources.

Business consultancy report

Research for this dissertation has already been conducted.Reaserch and finding have been enclosed too,However, please you are free to add findings where appropriate. This includes:

1. Interviews that I have completed with the company
2. Survey with the clients and its result
3. presentation about the report that I have already presented to my tutor – all points from the presentation must be included in the report.
It is therefore crucial that you will read all my enclosed material carefully as it will form the base for this dissertation.
1. About the project
The project is about how Acxiom adapts its legacy, products and services to keep up with changes in its target markets.
Acxiom is a company in transition, historically based in marketing data and systems integration, it is currently developing its strategy for the future in a digital era that includes new and different approaches to service provision.
Acxiom was rapidly expanding at the beginning of the millennium, undertaking many acquisitions however it has not been able to capitalise on this and has not adapted to the digital era as rapidly as it needs to so is facing some serious challenges.
In order to inform the strategy, Acxiom require this project
1. to research and identify examples of the attributes,
2. to research and identify examples of behaviours
3. to research and identify examples of best practice
4. to research and identify examples of ‘must avoids’ of companies that have successfully transformed themselves and established a new position in the market and taken market share from competitors.
5. compare and contrast Acxiom to these companies
6. make recommendations on the best models for it to adopt for a sustainable future.
7. cost analysis that will reveal gaps in current performance and underutilized opportunities, which will aid in the transition.
The project needs to take into consideration Acxiom’s global position and the additional challenges that presents in ‘local’ markets.
You must also consider other options and opportunities for Acxiom and to apply some ‘blue sky thinking’ to the ideas about the products and services.
In addition to this, Acxiom is essentially a US company and has struggled to adapt what works in the US to what works in Europe which is why I think this is such as exciting project because it has a global perspective as well as addressing some fundamental strategic problems for ma $multi-million business.
Please use relevant framework and business models to support your argument.
A proposal has been created and accepted by Acxiom, therefore the report must be written accordingly and all the objectives must be fulfilled
2. Proposal created by myself and accepted by Acxiom
Objectives and Scope
Objectives
The objectives of the analysis are to:
• Understand Acxiom’s current position and how it relates to a shift in data connectivity (you must use appropriate frameworks)
• Identify how Acxiom needs to adapt its business strategy in order to successfully transition into a neutral connector of data between clients
• To understand previous successes and failures from other industries to help inform a more successful/ lower risk strategy
Scope
key employees have been intervened (the transcription is included and is very important to read it as it is one of the main source of information for this dissertation) and completed survey with Acxiom’s clients/prospects/agencies. The outcome of the survey was unfortunately inconclusive, however it still must be incorporated into the report. This primary research together with secondary research will form the base for the analysis and reaching the report objectives
Methodology
Interviews with personnel – Internal Analysis (this part is conducted by myself – however I am providing full transcription of those interviews and you will then need to incorporate it into the report
The purpose of these interviews was to determine where Acxiom is now and any steps made towards transitioning into a safe haven of neutral data connectivity. From the material supplied you will also need to identify what the personnel identify as their primary markets and customers. From the material supplied you will also need to establish the internal process of developing new products and any management hurdles that may help shape the detail of recommendations.
Service Portfolio analysis – this part you are required to do it
To help determine Acxiom’s current position, we will look at the present allocation of funding and resources available to develop new products.
2. Customer and market analysis
Customer –
• Interview current, prior and potential clients
• Current clients – Understand the key strengths of Acxiom and their public perception
• Previous customers – Learn why they decided to switch providers
• Companies who have never used Acxiom – Determine market perception
