Quality of care has always been a concern in the U.S. health care system. Although great strides have been made to improve the quality of care delivered, many critics still believe that the United States has a long way to go before truly delivering uniform quality care.

How would you define quality of care from the provider and patient perspectives?

Why do you believe that quality can be viewed as a strength and a weakness of the U.S. health care system?

Be sure to provide at least 2 reasons for this, and provide specific examples for discussion.

Identify several difficulties and several benefits of working with licensed independent practitioners to improve quality in a typical hospital. What considerations should managers keep in mind when working with them?

Dear Supreme Court,

I am in prison. I was convicted of high treason against the United States for transmitting documents to WikiLeaks that prove the National Security Agency was tracking and reading all of my email, because I once commented to a friend that somebody should really build a big bomb and blow up the NSA Headquarters in Fort Meade, Maryland. It was clearly not a serious suggestion, but an expression of irritation. If they can spy on me, without a warrant or even probable cause, then why can I not do the same? They are a public agency, paid for by tax dollars, and the American People have a right to know what they are doing. I argue that my conviction is a direct violation of my First Amendment right to free speech, and the spirit of my First Amendment right to peaceably assemble, as the crux of this conviction was my communication of this evidence with both specific individuals, and the public in general. Please agree to hear my case. The truth will set me free!

Should writ of certiorari be granted?

After doing a chest x-ray, your doctor says the results are inconclusive. So, you are put on a six-month course of isoniazid to be safe. About six months later, while sitting in your medical microbiology class during a lecture on tuberculosis, you suddenly realize why you had that positive reaction to the skin test six months earlier. It had nothing to do with being infected, but was because you were born in Norway and your family moved to the United States when you were four years old.

3. What is going on here? Discuss in detail. 4. A while later, you told a friend of yours who is HIV-positive about your TB scare. She said that her doctor doesn't typically use the TB skin test on her, even though people with HIV are more susceptible to TB. Why is the skin test not always a reliable TB test for those with HIV?

You have been asked to continue your analysis of the yearly sales of the Nikon D5 camera body at the population of stores that sells this item throughout the United States. One of the factors that need to be studied is the variability in the sales of this item for this population of stores. To complete this task, you select a random sample of stores and record the sales at these stores. This data is shown in appendix one below. At both the 10% and the 5% levels of significance, does the standard deviation in the sales of the unit at the stores differ from 50 units? Create also 90% and 95% confidence intervals for the variance and standard deviation of the sales of this camera. Explain their meanings. Use these intervals to perform the hypothesis tests you performed earlier in the problem.

A recent study of the effects of income on demand for health care evaluated the effects of job changes, including job loss, unemployment compensation, and salary increases on the demand for healthcare. The study found that when income dropped by 2%, the demand for health services dropped 0.5%. Another recent study analyzed these effects by comparing the demand for health care across families at different income levels in the United States. The second study found that among families with annual incomes of $60,000, the demand for health care was approximately 0.75 times the demand among families with annual incomes of $80,000.

a. What is the formula for calculating income elasticity of demand? (Show the formula and describe each term in the formula.)

b. What is the income elasticity of demand implied by the first study? (Show your calculations.)

c. What is the income elasticity of demand implied by the second study? (Show your calculations.)

d. If these estimates are different, how would you explain these differences? (2-4 sentences.)

Pick any 2 questions and answer it (answer should be half page long per question):

1. The acceleration of economic growth in the last two decades has made economic decision-making more complex as multinational concerns must be taken into account. Explain.

2. The Information Revolution, an economic restructuring comparable to the Agricultural Revolution and the Industrial Revolution, has brought about new questions of social interest. Elaborate.

3. Climatologists agree that global warming is at least in part the result of economic activity. The warming may lead to large economic costs. How can individuals and nations satisfy their self-interested desire for goods and services while also protecting the social-interest of the environment?

4. Think about the trends in what and how goods and services are produced in the U.S. and global economies. Do you think that at some future time, there will be no jobs in the United States and all the jobs will be in developing economies?

5. Compare the scale of agricultural production in the advanced and developing economies.

  1. You no longer believe that the population standard deviation in the yearly sales per store of this model of camera is a known quantity. You therefore will use the sample standard deviation of the yearly sales per store as an estimate of this unknown population standard deviation as you attempt to estimate the yearly mean sales per store of the population of stores across the United States. You collect sales information from a random sample of stores. This data is shown in appendix one below. Find both 95% and 90% confidence intervals for the mean sales per store at this population of stores. At each confidence level, comment upon the change in the results of this problem from the results of the previous problem.
