Due 4/12/19 A logic model is a tool that can be used in planning a program. Using a logic model, social workers can systematically analyze a proposed new program and how the various elements involved in a program relate to each other. At the program level, social workers consider the range of problems and needs that members of a particular population present. Furthermore, at the program level, the logic model establishes the connection between the resources needed for the program, the planned interventions, the anticipated outcomes, and ways of measuring success. The logic model provides a clear picture of the program for all stakeholders involved. To prepare for this Assignment, review the case study of the Petrakis family, located in this week’s resources. Conduct research to locate information on an evidence-based program for caregivers like Helen Petrakis that will help you understand her needs as someone who is a caregiver for multiple generations of her family. You can use the NREPP registry. Use this information to generate two logic models for a support group that might help Helen manage her stress and anxiety. First, consider the practice level. Focus on Helen’s needs and interventions that would address those needs and lead to improved outcomes. Then consider the support group on a new program level. Think about the resources that would be required to implement such a program (inputs) and about how you can measure the outcomes. Submit the following: Please be detailed in response and use 2 additional APA peer reviewed references. Also please adhere to the guidelines and submit completed practice level model outline and completed program logic module outline as requested in directions A completed practice-level logic model outline (table) from the Week 7 Assignment handoutA completed program logic model outline (table) in the Week 7 Assignment Handout2–3 paragraphs that elaborate on your practice-level logic model outline.

Part IConsider the four health plans below with an eye to choosing one to offer to the company's employees. Assume that the health plans and their annual per employee premiums are as follows:Health PlanPremium, IndividualPremium, FamilyAetna Health$4,555$11,428MetroPlus$4,267$10,540Empire$4,217$10,767Oxford$6,029$13,417The employer will pay 80% of the premium for individual coverage, and the employee will pay the remaining 20% as well as the entire additional premium for family coverage. (The premiums listed above, while realistic in magnitude, are hypothetical and computed solely for the purpose of this project.) All of the plans are managed care plans. Assume that the benefit package is the same across all plans, so there is no difference between them in what services are covered.In addition to the above data, click here to view and investigate the Online Report on Quality Performance Results in New York State, the latest report card issued by the New York State Department of Health, 2013, and incorporate the information into your evaluation.You can view the various categories of measures on which health plans are rated (e.g., Access to Care, Adult Living with Illness, etc.). Click each link for a summary chart that presents the performance (usually as a percentage score) of each plan in the group on the relevant measures and how each plan compares to regional and statewide scores.Submit a 2-page analysis in a Microsoft Word document that outlines the plan you selected and why. Generally, you would select the plan with the highest score, but if you chose a plan with a lower score, explain why. Include the following elements in your analysis:Explain which factors (e.g., price and/or performance measures) were most important to your choice of plan and how you derived the weights for each factor you used. Indicate, on a scale of 1 to 10, how comfortable or confident you are that you made the right choice, with 10 being most confident. Part IIYou need to use the multiattribute utility (MAU) technique to respond to the following questions. Although the technique can be performed with pencil and paper, it is recommended you use a Microsoft Excel to do the various calculations involved.Click the following links to access the information on using the MAU technique:MAU Model MAU Example Compare your level of confidence at the time you completed Part I to your confidence level for Part II, when you used this decision aid. Was it helpful? What were its advantages and disadvantages? Did it make the decision harder to make or easier to justify?Support your responses with examples.Cite any sources in APA format.

Most editors test their covers in focus groups in an endless search for the magic that will make their magazines fly off the shelves and to avoid costly mistakes. Katharine Q.
