  Education and Research

  The purpose of this assignment is to benefit from the perspective of a leader in education and research in healthcare how they do their research. Most hospitals and other healthcare organizations offer education for patients and employees, and they conduct research (mostly market research). Major academic medical centers participate in major research studies, usually aimed at developing a better treatment, or curing some illness. Through the readings you will learn about various forms of research. Use those words as “key words” in your library research to see if you can find out more about them.

  For the SLP, interview someone in a leadership position in a healthcare organization to ask about how that organization handles patient and employee education, and whether that organization participates in any research (if so, find out what types and whether it is mostly qualitative or quantitative research). In your paper, compare what this leader tells you to what you learned through your research for the case paper.

  This can be where you currently work or have access to members of the leadership team. You are asked to use the same area of education and research you researched for the Case Assignment. This will allow you to see what you learned from your research in a real-world application.

  Prepare and submit a paper responding to the following items:

  1. Provide an overview of the area of education and research you have chosen.
  2. Determine whether or not your research is qualitative or quantitative and why.

  SLP Assignment Expectations

  Write a 4- to 6-page paper (this does not include title and reference pages). It needs to be well written, based on information from scholarly research, and should demonstrate a thorough analysis of the topic.

  Introduction

  The course begins with an overview of the U.S. Healthcare Delivery system (Module 1).

  We will then explore the various organizations responsible for delivering healthcare: the physician practices, hospitals, and integrated delivery systems. We will also examine the structure of the system, including the types of institutions that comprise it and how they interact with each other, the flow of money and services among them, and the paths that patients follow through the system.

  Finally, we will delve into government-supported healthcare coverage: Medicare and Medicaid.

  The U.S. Healthcare system is influenced by the following forces:

  Internal factors:

  Financing:

  • Public health insurance programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, State Children’s Health Insurance Program, and TriCare.
  • Employer provided health insurance.
  • Commercial health insurance.
  • Out-of-pocket payments.

  Payment:

  • Payment mechanisms used by public and private health insurance programs, including but not limited to fee-for-service, capitation, per diem, global budget, pay for performance, shared savings, gain sharing, bundled payments.

  Delivery:

  • Healthcare delivery institutions such as hospitals, ambulatory care clinics (e.g., community health clinics, and physician offices), pharmacies, and rehabilitation centers.

  Resources:

  • Healthcare human resources, including all types of healthcare professionals (physicians, nurses, therapists, pharmacists, technicians, and so on) as well as management and administrative personnel.
  • Health IT infrastructure.
  • Medical equipment.

  Regulation:

  • Federal and state legislation that regulates all agents in the healthcare system (e.g., Patient Protection and Accountable Care Act [PPACA], Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA], Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act [COBRA], and Employee Retirement Income Security Act [ERISA]).

  External factors:

  • Economic development.
  • Political climate.
  • Population characteristics such as demographic composition and health outcomes.
  • Social and cultural values.
  • Technological development.

  The combined interaction of these forces influences the structure and the development of the U.S. healthcare system.

  Major Characteristics of U.S. Healthcare Delivery

  • No central governing agency to integrate and coordinate healthcare.
  • High in cost, unequal in access, and average on outcome.
  • Access to healthcare services is selectively based on insurance coverage.
  • Technology-driven delivery system focusing on acute care.
  • Legal risks influence practice behavior.
  • Multiple players and balance of power.
  • Quest for integration and accountability.
