Their educational focus has been on learning how to diagnose and treat patients. Therefore, understanding the operational aspect in practice management is imperative to the financial viability of their future practice.

Explain why you think these advancements have reduced costs overall while still ensuring the delivery of quality care.
Part 3: The United States Versus Other Health Care Systems: An International Perspective

Discuss how the other country’s health care system is funded.
Discuss disparities in health care from your chosen country.
Include at least one positive aspect from the other country’s health care system that you would like to see added to the S. health care system, explaining why you would like this addition.
Part 4: Reforms and Improvements
Describe two potential reforms and improvements currently being debated at either the local, state, or federal You may want to review the Laws and Regulations Affecting Health Care discussion prompt to help you with this component. Examples could include any of the following:
Federal modifications (e.g., antitrust reforms, CHIP, HSA or HRA, Medicare reform, Medicaid expansion, PPACA repeal, pharmaceutical regulations, development of a universal system, veterans’ health care, crossing borders for health care, clinical trial research, )
State modifications (e.g., Medicaid reform, income tax credits, adoption of state level universal health care, etc.)
Increased consumer controls (e.g., patient-centered care, provider choice, complementary and alternative care choices, activism for changes at the state and federal level, etc.)
Reimbursement changes (Medicare, Medicaid, managed care plans, traditional insurance plans, etc.)
Part 5: Conclusion: The Future of the U.S. Health Care System
Examine what you believe the S. health care system will resemble in the next 10 years by recommending two changes and addressing access to care, quality of care, and cost of care, including an example of each in your vision of the future health care system.
Note, you are adding on to the 7- to 9-slide presentation from Week 3. You will create 8 to 13 new content slides with the information outlined in the directions above.
Must include a separate title slide with the following:

– Use an underlined Toulmin thesis statement to compose a two-page essay (normal size & spacing) that demonstrates an understanding of the intellectual and historical changes that have taken place in the development of world art[GECC2] during the covered time period in this section of the course. Support your analysis with additional art works analyzed in the course. College-level writing is expected [GECC1].
