T​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​he mission of each and every hospital in America is to serve the health care needs of the people

 

T​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​he mission of each and every hospital in America is to serve the health care needs of the people in its community 24 hours a day, seven days a week. But, hospitals’ work is made more difficult by our fragmented health care system — a system that leaves millions of people unable to afford the health care service they need. Hospitals deal with more than 1,300 insurers. Each has different plans and multiple and often unique requirements for hospital bills. Add to that decades of government regulations, which have made a complex billing system even more complex and frustrating for everyone involved. In fact, Medicare rules and regulations alone top more than 130,000 pages, much of which is devoted to submitting bills for payment. Today’s fragmented health care system leaves hospitals with a daily balancing act to maintain their mission to the community while making ends meet. H​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​owever, federal laws and regulations require hospitals to maintain uniform charge structures. Payments do not correspond to those charges. What a hospital actually receives in payment for care is very different. With this statement as a backdrop, The AHA (American Hospital Association) identifies 6 groups of hospitals: Identify the different types of hospitals, and what percentage of the whole each group is. What is the primary mission of each group, and who is the primary patient population? What sources of funding each group looks for and what percentage of funding (Medicare, Medicaid, private, etc.) each group receives? How do hospital reimbursement rates get determined? PLEASE USE HEADINGS FOR EACH SECTION! Please cite all sources and create a reference page to support your citations. Remember to use correct APA formatting for citations and reference page ​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​source.

 

T​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​he mayor and city council members of Seatville

 

T​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​he mayor and city council members of Seatville have hired you as a consultant to determine the transportation modes within their city. The mayor wants to know where to spend budget dollars to improve infrastructure and transportation modes. Being a diligent consultant, you interviewed 1,255 people during a 16-week period. You determined the following methods of transportation were used: 850 residents drove a personal car, 200 used public transportation (bus), 5 rode a bicycle, 50 walked, and 150 rode a motorcycle. Prepare a report that outlines the requirements of your consulting task. In your report, you should include the following: Provide an introduction that outlines the problem and gives on overview of the situation as well as a conclusion that sums up y​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​our report. Develop and explain the probability and relative frequency of the data you found for each mode of transportation. Compute the relative frequencies to two decimal places. If you need practice computing relative frequency, watch the Unit II Relative Frequency Example video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoXi8WynJpc. Use this data to make a final recommendation of where the mayor and city council should spend their infrastructure/transportation. Your completed report must be at least three pages in length, and you must use your textbook and at least one other academic source. Adhere to APA Style 7th edition when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​.

T​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​he Leadership Self-Assessment

T​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​he Leadership Self-Assessment Quizzes are an important component of the Written Exercise for this module. The quizzes are intended to reveal certain personality traits and leadership behaviors that you may not be fully aware of. By no means are these quizzes regarded as “all knowing” of your leadership skills, and thus the results should not be taken as the end, but rather as the beginning, of the self- assessment process. You are expected to critically analyze the results and not just accept them at face value. T
