Reference Assignment This article titled “Targeted health insurance in a low income country and its impact on access and equity in access: Egypt's school health insurance” focuses on the challenges that various government administrations go through to meet public demands, including healthcare with limited resources. The article specifically focuses on health programs such as the School Health Insurance Program (SHIP) in Egypt formed to improve healthcare equity and access for children in the country (Yip & Berman, 2001). This material is the most reliable research source compared to the other two because of several reasons. One is because the two authors have written several other articles revolving around the same topic. The article is also published in the .gov domain extension, which is considered one of the most reliable websites with credible information. The authors also used verifiable sources like previously documented surveys, which prove that the information given is accurate and precise. The topic was thoroughly researched with sufficient evidence to support the author's claims hence the article fulfills the evaluation criteria for assessing credible sources. The article "Obtaining Health Care Services for Low-Income Children: A Hierarchy of Needs" talks about how many families fail to access healthcare services due to the lack of health insurance. The authors argue that many children are unable to receive quality health services because their parents lack the financial ability to pay for these services (DeVoe et al,2008). The authors explore different research materials to identify the many factors that hinder low-income children from receiving the best healthcare services, including insurance coverage. This article is the second most reliable resource since it satisfies certain conditions stipulated in the evaluation criterion. For example, it was published by the United States National Library of Medicine, a government source. The author's conclusion agrees with the findings of other researchers who have written the same topic. For instance, the article identifies health insurance as the major hindrance to children not receiving proper healthcare services. Similarly, other researchers argue that although most American children receive quality healthcare, there exist several barriers like lack of health insurance that contribute to some children lacking proper healthcare. In the final article, the authors evaluate how insurance status affects the low-income children access healthcare services. The various topics discussed in this article include children's health, insurance coverage and benefits, the uninsured, and children's health insurance programs. This article aims to compare the private health insurance that low-income children depend on medicaid coverage in terms of fulfilling their health care needs (Dubay & Kenney, 2001). This article is the least reliable although credible source compared to the other two because it meets some evaluation condition. For example, it is published on an official website named health affairs. Also, the writers depend on facts rather than personal opinions to present an argument, as well as use, certifies statistics to support their claims. The authors also use credible sources in their research from platforms like google scholar, which are credible research databases implying that the information in this article is reliable.

Mixed punctuation may be used with modified block letter style, in which case the salutation and complimentary close are followed by punctuation marks. The proper punctuation with this style is a comma after the complimentary close and a colon (for business letters) or a comma (for personal letters) after the salutation.

Business letters are usually written on letterhead stationery in block or modified block letter style. Personal letters include return addresses instead of letterheads and may be written in block or modified block letter style. Block letter style aligns the return address, dateline, and closing at the left margin. Paragraphs are not indented. It is easy to key but may look off- balance. In modified block letter style, the dateline and closing begin at the horizontal center of the page. Paragraphs begin at the left margin. This style may be more difficult to key, but it looks more symmetrical on the page. Figure 5.11 illustrates basic differences in block and modified block letter style.
