I am going to be attaching some more information about the topic and the scoring guide. Develop a disaster recovery plan to lessen health disparities and improve access to community services after a disaster. Then, develop an 8-10 slide presentation (PowerPoint preferred) of the plan for the Vila Health system, city officials, and the disaster relief team.Instructions Complete the following: Develop a disaster recovery plan for the Vila Health community that will lessen health disparities and improve access to services after a disaster. Refer back to the Vila Health: Disaster Recovery Scenario to understand the Vila Health community. Assess community needs.Consider resources, personnel, budget, and community makeup.Identify the people accountable for implementation of the plan and describe their roles.Focus on specific Healthy People 2020 goals.Include a timeline for the recovery effort. Use the MAP-IT (Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track) framework to guide the development of your plan: Mobilize collaborative partners.Assess community needs.Plan to lessen health disparities and improve access to services.Implement a plan to reach Healthy People 2020 objectives.Track community progress. Develop a slide presentation of your disaster recovery plan with an audio recording of you presenting your assessment of the Vila Health: Disaster Recovery Scenario for city officials and the disaster relief team. Presentation Format and Length You may use Microsoft PowerPoint (preferred) or other suitable presentation software to create your slides and add your voice-over. If you elect to use an application other than PowerPoint, check with your instructor to avoid potential file compatibility issues. Be sure that your slide deck includes the following slides: Title slide. Recovery plan title.Your name.Date.Course number and title. References (at the end of your presentation). Your slide deck should consist of 8–10 content slides plus title and references slides. Use the speaker's notes section of each slide to develop your talking points and cite your sources as appropriate.

In business, it’s important for management to have a solid understanding for the various forms of costs and their drivers. More important now, then ever before, is the need to leaders to take accountability for the financial and operational performance of their entities. They need to dig in and discover the causal factors contributing to poor process outcomes (too much variability). Inefficient processes consume more costs then efficient processes and, in turn, negatively impact the “bottom line” performance of companies. Since the health care industry tends to operate on narrow margins to begin with, failing to proactively address costing issues can have devastating consequences. As you can imagine, with increasing emphasis on healthcare reform and a growing focus on capitation, it’s vital that organizations make a concerted effort to more effectively manage costs. There are many cost reducing initiatives underway through the public and private sectors, which will be explored in this unit. According to Berwick, Nolan, and Whittington (2008), organizations that are committed to the care of clients, should be working to simultaneously reach three aims: 1) improve the experience of care; 2) improve population health; and 3) reduce healthcare costs per person.In order to support your understanding of costs and the approaches being employed to bend the cost curve, you will be expected to complete the following end-of-chapter problems and mini-case:Chapter 5: 5.5, 5.7, 5.12, 5.13 (pp. 14-16, Lee textbook); Case 5.2, Improving Performance (p. 81, Lee textbook)Chapter 6: 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3 (pp. 102-103; Lee textbook)Unit Learning OutcomesULO 1. Calculate average and margin costs. (CLO 5, 6, and 7)ULO 2. Examine costs from the perspective ok key stakeholders (e.g., clients, practices, society, and insurers). (CLO 5, 6, and 7)ULO 3. Illustrate the relationship between cost, efficiency, and quality. (CLO 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7)ULO 4. Examine the impact of healthcare reforms initiatives on the Triple Aim as posited by Berwick, Nolan, and Whittington (2008). (CLO 5 and 7)ULO 5. Evaluate several strategies for reducing services per patient. (CLO 6 and 7) ULO 6. Compose several ways to reduce cost per case or service. (CLO 5, 6, and 7)DirectionsThe students are expected to carefully read the assignment instructions, then thoroughly and explicitly address each question. Microsoft Excel will be used to perform the mathematical computations and graphs; however, the problems and their corresponding responses should be written up in a Microsoft Word document. Your responses to the assigned mini-case study should also be included in the same document. IMPORTANT: Make certain that there is a detailed description of how the calculations were performed. You will also need to include an interpretation of the results. While there is no minimum number of references that need to be utilized to support the completion of this assignment, it is generally understood that outside sources, including the text, will be necessary to complete the problems. The document must adhere to the APA writing style in terms of using in-text citations and the listing of sources on the references page. The Microsoft Word document and Excel spreadsheet are to be uploaded under the correct unit assignment page.

The purpose of this assignment is to compare two models of health care. Choose a model, such as the holistic health or social model, to compare to the medical model. Refer to the study materials for information on available infographic tools. Create an infographic to compare the two models, including the following criteria: A description of the medical model, including access of care and satisfaction with care. A description of the second model, including access of care, satisfaction with care, and the cost of care. A list of the similarities between the two models. A list of the differences between the two models. In addition to your infographic, choose a patient population that would benefit from your selected model. Include a 300-500 word rationale for how this model would best serve that patient population. How would this be more beneficial than other models of care?
