Description

You have decided to become a health education teacher for a high school. One of your first lessons will be on explaining the complexity of the U.S. healthcare system to your students. You want to be creative, so you decide to have a roleplay activity in which you select students to play the stakeholders in the healthcare system. You also want them to understand how the U.S. compares to other countries.

Develop a lesson plan that outlines the major stakeholders in the system and how they interact with each other. Include the main objectives of the reading, at least 2 outside sources that you can share with the students to support the key ideas and include a summary of each, and list at least 3 key points/areas for discussion in the class.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • 2-3 pages in length, not including the cover and reference pages,
  • Be formatted according to APA Requirements, and
  • A minimum of three or four references with associated in-text citations. Two of these sources may be from the attached readings, textbook, but two must be external and should be from peer reviewed or quality academic sources. Each reference must be cited at least once in the paper.
  • Use headings to organize the content of your work.

who influence American policymaking is exclusively complex, costly and deemed unequal by a
significant number of people. The system was originally private but has migrated to adopt a
private-public mix which has further increased complexity
("20190118015023basics_of_u.s._healthcare_ch.7.pdf", 2019). Complexity within the system
has also resulted from the various reforms adopted over the past years, as attempts to increase
healthcare access and expand services to the low-income citizens and other vulnerable groups.
Despite attaining improved success and coverage over time, successive reforms are less
likely to lead to universal access, considering their inability to contain or reduce medical costs in
