the aspects of health services finance that we have explored this
semester come together with current industry trends.
Please find a current events (within the past year) news article
from a reputable news source (MSN, New York Times, Chicago Tribune,
etc) that discusses any aspect of health services finance. For your
original post, please provide a 150+ word summary of your article.
Be sure that you demonstrate your understanding of the financial
concepts mentioned in the article and be prepared to respond to any
questions posed by your classmates. In addition, you must be sure

A medical researcher believes that a drug changes the body's temperature. Seven test subjects are randomly selected and the body temperature of each is measured. The subjects are then given the drug, and after 30 minutes, the body temperature of each is measured again. The results are listed in the table below. Is there enough evidence to conclude that the drug changes the body's temperature?
Let d=(body temperature after taking drug)−(body temperature before taking drug)d=(body temperature after taking drug)−(body temperature before taking drug). Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test. Assume that the body temperatures are normally distributed for the population of people both before and after taking the drug.
| Subject | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Temperature (before) | 99.1 | 99.9 | 98 | 100.1 | 100.6 | 100.5 | 100.2 |
| Temperature (after) | 98.6 | 99.4 | 98.7 | 99.4 | 99.9 | 99.8 | 99.3 |
Step 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Step 4: Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis H0H0. Round the numerical portion of your answer to three decimal places.
Step 5: Make the decision for the hypothesis test. (Reject or Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis)

Chapter 11 & 12: The late Middle Ages in the early Renaissance
What changes are occurring in the arts and literature from the late Medieval period to the early Renaissance?
In: Economics
The Keynesian perspective says that AD is unstable and changes in AD can cause either recession and unemployment or inflation. These shifts of the AD curve demonstrate problems within our economy that can be modified through government intervention.
Neoclassical economists say that the economy is self-correcting. If there is a leftward shift (decrease) of AD, over time both prices and wages will also decrease allowing the economy to find a new equilibrium. They say there is no need for government intervention.
The key policy question for neoclassicals is how to promote growth of potential GDP. As a neoclassical, what would you want to see our government do to promote growth?

a. What are the stylized facts of structural transformation of
Hollis B. Chenery and his
colleagues identified as patterns of development?
