Health Care Consumer: Trends and Marketing
Instructions: I rather hear about your experiences, experiences of others you know, opinions and ideas when answering the following questions. Must write up 100 to 150 word count.
Today many doctors have patient portals. A patient portal is a location where the consumer can log on and see their medical data. They can see their lab results, results from prior years, make appointment, request scripts, watch videos, etc. Do you think most patients are capable of understanding their lab results they see online without a doctor’s interpretation?
Technological advances have made it possible and necessary for health care professionals to communicate in different ways. It is important to understand not only how to effectively communicate, but also to know to whom you are communicating. For example, nurses will communicate differently to a physician than they would to a patient. Also, it is important to proofread text messages and emails more than once prior to sending. Certainly the forms of communication have changed dramatically in the last decade. I work with multiple surgeons, and their method of communicating with patients is face to face, with doctors, via web conferencing, and their office staff work on the patient portal. Today we also have more technological equipment in the OR that is used to communicate to the doctor vitals, perfusion, and a host of other patient data. We are also seeing a strong trend in global surgeries, where it is being performed by a surgeon in one location, while another in another country is showing how to do the surgery. With so many different ways to communicate, how do we know we are communicating effectively?
What are the pros and cons of government agencies (i.e., agencies within the Health and Human Services umbrella)? Are these agencies effective?
The FDA actually tests less than 1% of our food for safety. They usually do not get involved with products unless there are outbreaks of diseases, such as Salmonella. The little that they do test are usually imported from specific countries known for unsafe foods. They also do not test food supplements, such as St. Johns Wort, and other popular ones OTC.
What about other agencies such as the CDC or the Office of Aging?
When you communicate, you also need to decide how you will tailor it – will you communicate to the masses or to the individual, or will it be to a select group? Can anyone give examples?
There are many ways to establish the marketing function for an organization, two of the more common ways are by product and by market. The product oriented structure is the more common method used in health care marketing. For this structure the product line manager is responsible for the bulk of the responsibility and accountability. Many times this person is the nurse. Now for the market oriented structure a health care organization may design a marketing campaign around its major customer groups, but the focus will be on the customers who have purchasing requirements such as large corporations. Can anyone provide examples of how their organization structures marketing?
Define conformity and give an example. Name three reasons why people conform.
Give examples of disadvantages of advertising.
Social media originated in 2002 and allows us to build social networks with people who share similar interests. Social media is highly accessible and represents a shift in how people share information. It’s a fuse of sociology and technology. Social media has improved how we can outreach to particular communities whether it be by: internal to the organization, geographically isolated, disease specific, demographically oriented, or widespread to the masses. Yet, the FDA has a problem with social media. What is that problem?
You work for your local public health department and they have asked you to create a 1 page paper to be sent out to your community describing the state of your health care market.
Research your local community.
Describe- include the following:
Cultural demographics of your community
Age breakdown of your community
How the demographics and age affect your local health care market
Examine a Manual or Help System for Task Orientation
Directions: Examine a copy of a manual for a software program such as a word processor, spreadsheet, or database, or examine a help system for a program you use regularly. Study the table of contents, looking at all the elements in the documents (there may be more than one document included in the printed set). Find instances where you think the manual or help reinforces the user’s workplace and workplace tasks. How much of the document is in “how-to” format?
Part II
Evaluate the Manual
Directions: Look back at the “Five Key-Task Orientation Questions” and answer each one for the manual you have looked at. These answers will be fairly short, but should cover all aspects of the manual that are relevant.
Part III
Response
Directions: For this third part of the homework assignment, you should reflect back on the answers you provided and write a response between one and a half and two pages in which you explain how effective the manual is. If you find any places in the manual that you think could use some revision based on the first two parts of this assignment and on your readings, explain how the manual is lacking, and then explain how it could be revised and what could be added to strengthen it.
Every group, whether social or professional, has roles that need to be filled in order for the group to function effectively. Sometimes, people choose the role they want to play. At other times, people may naturally fall into a role without even realizing it. Research group roles or group dynamics using your textbook and the Internet. Write an essay on the topic. Address the following:

AND YOU NEED THE TEXT BOOK CHAPTER 6 TO HELP YOU ANSWER THE ESSAY
BACKGROUND AND PREPARATION For this research project, you’ll write a two-part essay identifying an ineffective public policy and suggesting how it can be improved. In the first part, you’ll choose a topic and discuss a related the current policy that you feel is ineffective. In the second part, you’ll research your point of view and write about changes you would make to the policy to make it more effective. You must use at least two outside sources in addition to the textbook and you must document the sources using a standard format, such as MLA or APA. OBJECTIVE This research project will help you apply what you’ve learned about public policy. More precisely, you’ll have a chance to make some public policy suggestions of your own on a topic of your choice. PROCEDURE Write an essay of at least 500 words, typed and double spaced in a standard, 12-point font, such as Times New Roman. You may use both Internet and print sources for your research. The format of your essay must include an introductory paragraph that summarizes what the paper is about and a concluding paragraph that summarizes your observations and conclusions. Part 1 Select a topic related to one of the following issues: n Immigration n Education n Entitlement programs n Foreign policy n Economy 128 Introduction to Public Policy Once you’ve selected your topic, identify a current policy within the topic that you feel isn’t effective. Read related journal articles or books and use the most relevant material to explore the issue. Discuss relevant ethical, ideological, practical, and any other relevant problems you find with respect to the policy issue you’ve selected. Analyze every aspect of the policy; determine which goals are being met, which aren’t being met, and the reasons for the success or failure of the policy. Part 2 Once you’ve completed assessment of the policy, introduce the changes you would make to remedy the problems you identified in Part 1. Refer to your research sources as needed, using proper citation for any quotes or paraphrased ideas that aren’t your own. Discuss how your changes would address the problems you’ve identified: n Compare the merits of your proposed policy to the existing policy n Analyze both policies with respect to the empirical and normative dimensions, the cost-benefit analysis, shortand long-term goals, and indirect benefits as discussed in your textbook n Discuss how your policy would be implemented in light of groups (stakeholders) that would favor or oppose your policy proposals n Explain and discuss just how your policy would be administered
The topic addressed in this module is financing international trade. One factor to consider here is the working capital guarantee program. That is, how is this program administered by outside agencies?
Your discussion topic is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Working Capital Guarantee Program administered by the Export Import Bank. Your post should demonstrate that you can conduct a scholarly dialogue, and apply one or more concepts from your readings with original analysis and interpretation.
In the introduction, you should set up the purpose for the proposal, provide a bit of background on the topic, and present your thesis.
Policy
Now that you have researched a variety of studies (in M4: Assignment 2), (use my references that have been attached) compile that information together to create a recommendation for policy makers regarding cell phone use while driving.
1: In a one-page summary, compare and contrast the results of the various studies regarding the cognitive abilities that are affected during cell phone use while driving.
2: Using that research, develop and explain particular recommendations for policy makers. For instance, restrict texting, or regulate the use of hand-held phones. All your recommendations must be supported by your research findings.
3: Based on the gaps in current research, describe the variables, populations, and situations which you would like to see future research address.
Conclusion
Review the important current research, your conclusions from that research, and how the future could look in both policy and research. Keep your goal in mind: To convince the reader to support your current policy proposal and future research to examine this issue more closely.
Your proposal should be written in APA style (which includes a title page with running header and a reference page), and free of typographical and grammatical errors. The body of your proposal should be 4–5 pages long.
