Discussion 06: Selecting a Plan

Base this discussion on the Problem on page 261 of your text labeled “Choosing Health Insurance”. Defend your plan selection with material from the text.

From what you have learned so far, which of the following insurance plans listed below do you personally prefer, assuming each one costs the same? Defend your choice (both your selection and rejections) with reasons drawn from these readings:

.Plan A: Covers the full range of medical care, subject to standard medical necessity or experimental exclusions, without any deductibles or copayments, but you must receive all care at an HMO clinic where doctors are paid a bonus for saving money.

.Plan B: Excludes mental health and preventative care, and the rest is subject to a $200 deductible and 20 percent copayment up to a maximum of $1,500 per year. Your choice of doctor, but all expensive treatments must be submitted for prior approval by the insurer to determine medical appropriateness.

.Plan C: Covers the full range of medical care, with no major exclusions and your choice of doctor, and no prior authorization requirement, but subject to a $3,000 deductible.

.Plan D: Coverage is defined in an approach similar to the Oregon plan, only using 5,000 specific categories of inclusion and exclusion taken from the latest practice guidelines based on medical research, as selected by a national panel of politically appointed experts. No other restrictions or financial limitations.

Base your discussion on material from the text and your own experience. Cite sources when necessary. Remember to write 150 words in complete sentences.

Rural populations face many challenges to receiving the health care they need. Social determinants of health such as living environment, education, access to resources, etc., all influence individual and population health.Often times, when resources are available, other determinants, such as a lack of education or self-care, financial limitations, etc., continue to inhibit care.Numerous nursing theories have developed from General Systems Theory and the idea that the “system” is made up of “subsystems” that must work collaboratively and in harmony in order to work effectively. Neuman’s Systems Model and Roy’s Adaptation Model are two of these nursing models that support the principles of General Systems Theory. 

For the purpose of this assignment, we will explore Roy’s Adaptation Model and answer the following:

  • Identify 2 major issues faced by rural populations in meeting their health care needs.
  • What specific social determinants of health significantly influence these issues?
  • Identify and describe 3 (out of 10) explicit assumptions of Roy’s Adaptation Model.
  • How do these assumptions apply to rural health?
  • What subsystems facilitate or hinder the overall system’s ability to meet the needs of the rural population?
  • Describe a plan or legislative process (may be one currently under review or recently passed) for improving the “healthcare system” and the potential impact on the rural population.

include a clear, separate introduction and conclusion.

Week 5 Discussion Topic – Explaining Preferences

Hello Class,

Choose something you enjoy, like music, movies, TV, books, a sport, etc. Pretend you are a reporter (film critic, food critic, sports writer, etc.) Write a paragraph explaining why one thing is better or more important than the other thing. For example, if you love movies, write a paragraph explaining why one movie is a better than another movie. Or, explain why one character plays a better villain than another character. Be careful not to let your enthusiasm get the best of you. Don’t just compare/contrast the two things. Explain WHY one is better or more important than the other. Also, don’t assume your audience knows about your subject. Don’t assume your audience knows the two people you are comparing/contrasting are rap artists.

The paragraph should be well-developed, which means: you need a topic sentence, supporting sentences, and a concluding sentence (clincher). The paragraph should be unified and coherent with specific supporting details or examples for support. It should provide sentence variety (simple, compound, and complex sentences). The sentences should be clear, concise, and arranged in a logical order. Transitional words and phrases should be used to provide coherence.

Students are asked to post a rough draft, final draft, and two or more responses to their classmates’ postings. 

Please let me know what questions you havtivity 

Audience Analysis Assignment and Video Presentation

/in /by

PLEASE READ ENTIRELY>>  2 PARTS!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

For the Video Argument Presentation, you have two audiences who will view and review your presentation: your instructor and your classmates.

For your instructor, ask yourself what will it take to convince them that you’ve done a terrific job of presenting an argument? Hint: pay close attention to all the requirements for the assignment and be passionate about your topic.

For your classmates, your informed and intelligent peers, what do you know about these audience members and what will they expect from your presentation?

For this assignment, write up two substantial paragraphs addressing the following:

Paragraph 1 – How will you persuade your instructor that you’ve done a good job on your Video Argument Presentation?

  • What will your instructor be expecting from you?
  • Use the rubric and what you know about your instructor to determine these criteria. Sometimes just thinking about the person who grades your work as an audience can help you appeal to them.

Paragraph 2 – Describe how you intend to appeal to your second audience: this term’s classmates.

  • What do you know about your peers? Really stop and think about them. Remember, each of them introduced themselves to you in week 1 and you’ve been hearing from them each week since.
  • What are their demographics – age, gender, educational level, etc.?
  • What do you think will influence or persuade them?
  • How will you use pathos in your presentation? Be specific.
  • How will you use ethos? The more you think this out, the better.
  • How will you use logos? You should use all of these big three!

THEN 

Your presentation will be delivered in an interactive 5-7 minute video that presents your side of your argument in a convincing, compelling, and interesting way.

You may present your video using a voice-over PowerPoint (Links to an external site.), a Biteable presentation, an iMovie, or a YouTube video. 

Requirements for the presentation include:

  • 5-7 minutes of presentation
  • Audio; we must be able to hear you!
  • A sense of organization
    • A hook to draw your listeners into your presentation
    • Several main points
    • A refutation of the opposing point of view
    • A true conclusion that summarizes your point of view
    • A call to action
    • Documentation of your sources either verbally or visually
  • A sense of persuasion. This is not an informative presentation. You must ask the audience to agree with your perspective on your issue
