For this assignment you will read the scenario below: You are the President of the United States, and your first term ends in a year. The cost-control mechanism you instituted 2 years ago, based on patient cost sharing and managed competition, has not worked, and the American people are upset about persistent health care inflation. You are preparing for a major television address on health care costs. Based on this scenario you will develop a 10-12 PowerPoint that includes the following:

1. A definition of patient cost sharing and managed competition. What are these practices and what is the expected outcome?

2. An explanation of whether these strategies are considered ‘painful’ or ‘painless’ cost controlling mechanisms (answer Only 2)

3. A proposal on either the expansion of current cost-sharing programs and more regulations to control costs or the elimination of the two current control mechanisms in favor of new ones.

Caesars​ Palace® Las Vegas made headlines when it undertook a​ $75 million renovation.

In​ mid-September 2015, the hotel closed its​ then-named Roman​ Tower, which was last updated in​ 2001, and started a major renovation of the 567 rooms housed in that tower. On January​ 1, 2016, the newly renamed Julius Tower​ reopened, replacing the Roman Tower. In addition to renovating the existing rooms and suites in the former Roman​ Tower, 20 guest rooms were added to the Roman Tower. With the renovation​ completed, Caesars expects the Julius Tower room rate to average around $149 per night. This​ increase, a $25 or​ 20.2% increase,​ reflects, in​ part, the room improvements. Assume that the annual fixed operating costs for the Julius Tower in Caesars​ Palace® Las Vegas will be $5,000,000. This amount represents an increase of​ $200,000 per year compared to​ pre-renovation. Also assume that the variable cost per hotel room night after the renovation is $27​; before the​renovation, the variable cost per room night was $20. The contribution margin per room night after the renovation is $122​; before the​ renovation, the contribution margin per room night was $129. The average hotel occupancy​ rate, in​ 2014, for Caesars Entertainment Corporation was​ 91.2%, according to its 2014 Form​ 10-K. By​ comparison, the average hotel occupancy rate in Las Vegas​ overall, for that same time​ period, was​ 86.8%, according to Stastia.com.
