HCA 807 Financial Structures of Health Care

As health care costs continue to soar, the financial structure of health care organizations remains at the forefront of public discussion. Some would argue that finance is exerting too much influence on the structure of health care organizations and services to the detriment of the quality of care and patient safety. Others vehemently disagree noting that being financially aware is creating efficient forms of health care services that are beneficial to patients. There are also specific advocates for both for-profit and non-profit structures. Further, in the process of becoming a doctoral researcher, it is necessary to develop the ability to organize and synthesize the related extant literature and to write well in academic style. Writing skill is improved by accepting feedback and carrying out revision. In this assignment, you will will revise a previous submission regarding health care structures and analyze the role of finance in determining the structure of health care organizations and health care services.

A reflection (250-300 words) that provides a bulleted list of the changes you made to the paper and discusses your revision process including how you incorporated your instructor’s feedback into the revised version. Similar to an abstract, this section will receive its own page following the title page and preceding the introduction to the paper.

A discussion of the internal and external financial structures that influence a health care organization.
A discussion of how the Affordable Care Act is affecting health care finance.
A discussion of how finance is influencing the quality of care and patient safety.
A discussion of the ethical concerns surrounding health care finance.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
