Content Requirements:The most important requirement for the content (or topic) of this paper, is that you are interested in the subject. Donʼt choose a subject because you think itʼs particularly academic, or that it will appeal in some way to my interests. Choose a topic because itʼs something you care about, because itʼs something you want to learn more about. You topic should also be appropriate for a college-level academic paper; remember who your audience is when selecting your topic.
This is a research paper, so it will require research on your part, and at least 5 different sources. You can research and write about almost anything–literature, science, art, philosophy, religion, current events–but whatever you write about, your thesis must take a stand, and you must articulate a position that you can defend and elaborate on through a well-researched paper.
What follows is the rubric I use when grading your papers. We will discuss and address the aspects of this rubric throughout the semester in the research forums. You should always feel free to bring up questions in the forums so that your classmates have the benefit of hearing your thoughts.

Remember this plan is just explaining to the professor what the report is going to consist of.
Very important to follow each instructed bullet.
The report plan is a plan written for the professor explaining what the report will consist of. Your audience is the professor. (The report plan is different than the actual report.)Create a plan that identifies what information you will need to prepare a justification report making a recommendation to an organization to implement a particular product, service, or program. The organization may have a business, governmental, professional, or social focus.
The report may focus on a “real” or “made-up” recommendation, but you should direct the report to an actual organization, even if you do not plan to submit the report.
For the report, the audience within the organization will be whatever level is most appropriate to make a decision on the topic of your report.
- Identify the recipient of the report. (To what organization will the recommendation be directed?)
- Identify the topic of the report. (What product, service, or program will you recommend?)
- Identify the purpose of the report. (What need or problem will the product, service, or program resolve?)
- Identify potential resources that will be needed for support.

John Q the Movie the Questionnaire
$5.00John Q the movie questionnaires
http://putlocker.bz/watch-john-q-online-free-putlocker.html
• Read an article about in defense of managed care in the May 2002 issue of Managed Care that is available at managedcaremag.com: http://www.managedcaremag.com/archives/0205/0205.johnq.html.- If your son had severe, life-threatening cardiomyopathy, as in this story, and your options were to a) let him die while having some “quality time” or b) get him a heart transplant, which would you choose?
- Does your (or your parents) insurance cover a heart transplant? You will need to look at the plans’ benefits and rules. You may need to consult with a health plan representative. Write down the name of your insurance, what kind of insurance it is (HMO, PPO, POS, etc.), whether it specifically covers heart transplants, how high the maximum single payout is, and how high your lifetime benefits are. Write down how you found out these things. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE INSURANCE, research an insurance program for a friend/family member, or find one on-line to research and report on.
- Give your opinion of the Managed Care article’s points raised in questions 3 and 4 above.
- What is a “cash account?”
- Given what you have learned about member services in this course, comment on the fact that John Q did not know about his policy switch from a PPO to an HMO. Was this John Q’s problem, an employer problem or a health plan problem? What should be done to improve this situation?
- In the ER, the hostages, hospital employees and doctors discuss John Q’s problem. They suggest that HMOs create incentives that might lead to a physician missing a problem when it could have been caught and treated. List four incentives common to HMO provider reimbursement or provider relations that might do this, and explain why each of the incentives you list could do this.
- Policy Opinion Question (no right or wrong answer). Should the working poor, such as John Q, be denied certain treatments available to those with better jobs and better health care or those “on welfare?”
