from the book The seagull Reader, there is a play called

A Raisin in the Sun, by Lorraine Hansberry

the play: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/ta7hwcn8a01j1i2/AAA497Ok0XQ8WJSz3qTpBXEza

required to write an original analysis of a piece of dramatic writing from Raisin in the Sun. Writing an analysis of dramatic writing commonly entails formulating and arguing a thesis that synthesizes a thematic aspect of the writing with a formal one.

For instance, consider the way in which a particular literary device at work in your selected work contributes to conveying a theme or idea there. (Remember that a theme is not merely a topic; rather, a theme expresses an idea about a given topic.) The device and theme you discuss for a particular piece of fiction are yours to choose.

For examples of the literary devices at work in these plays – look to the introduction in our Seagull Reader (the blue book). Specifically, “The Parts of a Play section”: plot, character, spectacle, & symbolism.

the introduction link is this: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/27qqrif23i1owu2/AABlnrNqdQvlH_Wqvza1TYtPa

• demonstrate an understanding of the complexity of the literary readings by acknowledging that the argument being made does not exclude other possible readings.

Characteristics of the Argument Essay

A successful essay

• provides an introduction that creates interest rather than merely presenting background information.

• offers a specific and debatable thesis in the introduction that focuses the essay as argumentation.

• presents an objective stance by the use of the third-person voice.

• includes specific details and textual evidence.

• correctly integrates quotations and conforms to MLA documentation and format guidelines.

==========================================================

Requirements:

paper must contain a thesis ( MARK THE THESIS ON RED COLOR PLEASE ), and that thesis must organize your ideas. A thesis is your claim about a topic – what are you trying to prove in your paper?

Use direct quotes wherever they will help support your ideas. Aim to include at least one direct quote per body paragraph.

Your paper will consist of an introduction (the thesis will be its last sentence), body paragraphs (however many you need), and a conclusion (that brings up a new idea/perspective).

Use the Internet or Strayer online database to research the current health care delivery structures—both private and public—within your state.

Analyze the main competitive forces in the your healthcare delivery system in your state, and compare the major factors that influence the fundamental manner in which these competitive forces determine prices, supply and demand, quality of care, consumerism, and providers’ compensation.
Evaluate the positive benefits and negative aspects, respectively, of HMO managed care from the provider’s point of view—i.e., a physician and a healthcare facility—and from a patient’s point of view. Provide a rationale for your response.

Compensation and Reimbursement Plans

One way in which a MCO can control cost, quality, and access is through various structured compensation and reimbursement plans. The two most common examples are fee for service and capitation. Moreover, there are different types of reimbursement systems for inpatient and outpatient services. Answer the following questions in regard to the above information:

Examine the three types of inpatient or outpatient reimbursement systems?
Evaluate the key advantages and disadvantages of each system from the point of view of a managed care plan and the hospital?
What is the difference between capitation and FFS? Evaluate the type of market appropriate for each reimbursement method. Support your answer by providing an example of an MCO using either of these methods.
What do you understand by the term “UCR”? With what form of reimbursement is this term associated? Search current information from the Internet and evaluate the use of UCR in the managed care industry.

Reimbursement procedures are complex and detailed, especially those associated with government programs such as Medicare. Part of the regulatory requirements of Medicare is to prevent illegal billing practices such as churning, upcoding, and unbundling. You can search these topics by clicking http://oig.hhs.gov. You can also search on federal regulations for reimbursement procedures and fraud and compliance guidelines and education materials.

Based on your research, respond to the following questions:

Review the latest enforcement actions on this website. Identify a case where at least one of the following illegal actions was used—churning, upcoding, and unbundling.
What are some of the specific examples of actions taken against providers engaged in these practices?

After answering the above questions, read the following information:

P4P is a type of compensation method for providers based on evidence-based practices that promote better quality outcomes. Find at least two online sources of information, such as professional associations and government resources, from the South University Online library or the Internet on P4P compensation programs: one in favor of and one against this type of compensation program for providers.

Now, using the readings this week and the information gathered from the above sources:

Explain, in your own words, the negative consequences of P4P program.
Describe the market forces making this type of compensation program popular.

Current Trends and Issues in Managed Care

Compensation and reimbursement models are another method of controlling access, cost, and quality in a managed care environment. An MCO doesn’t have direct control over physicians or hospitals but through contractual agreements that set incentives for meeting agreed-upon standards, it can exert influence.

This week, you are required to write an essay on the following topics:

Managed care hospital reimbursement
Managed care provider reimbursement

Using South University Online library (e.g. CINAHL) or the Internet, review at least two articles for each topic and write a review for each source of information. Use the following guidelines for developing your essay:

Write a summary for each topic tying together the information learned about that topic.
Analyze the market forces that would favor using one reimbursement method over another.
Evaluate the key differences between different types of payment methodologies from the provider and hospital point of view.
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the payment methodologies reviewed from the provider and hospital point of view.
Evaluate new payment methodologies resulting from the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and discuss future changes in reimbursement methodologies.
Compare and contrast each article to the information discussed in the course textbook.

Based on your understanding, create a 3- to 4-page Microsoft Word document that includes the answers to the questions for the above topics.

Support your responses with examples.

Cite any sources in APA form.
