Role of Government in Providing Health Insurance for Other Sections

The government provides health insurance to low-income individuals,  the elderly, and the disabled. These individuals cannot afford private  health insurance and would be uninsured if government insurance did not  exist. Medicaid and Medicare are entitlement programs, while SCHIP is a  block grant program.

On the basis of your knowledge on Medicaid, Medicare and SCHIP, write  a 3- to 4-page essay in a Microsoft Word document on these government  insurance programs. Your essay should include answers to the following  questions:

  • Compare and contrast the three major government health insurances.  Include eligibility, administrative jurisdiction, and method of  financing.
  • Compare the Medicaid program in the state you reside in with a  Medicaid program in another state. Should Medicaid programs be uniform  throughout the United States? Explain why or why not.
  • Compare the structure and eligibility rules for SCHIP in your state  and SCHIP in another state. Do you think that SCHIP should be uniform  throughout the United States? Why or why not?
  • Describe entitlement and block grant programs. How are these two programs different?
  • Should all government health insurances be entitlement programs or should they all be block grant programs? Why?

3. Yer Vang, a Hmong student, complained that her social studies teacher never called upon her in class. She told the principal, “I know the answers, but the teacher won’t call upon me because he doesn’t want me to show up the white students.” The teacher admits that he didn’t call upon Yer too often, but the reason was that he didn’t want her to be embarrassed in front of the other students. “I know how lonely she must feel as the only Hmong student in class,” he explained, “so I don’t want to put any more pressure on her than I need to. And since this is an accelerated class, I was trying to be sensitive to the fact that it could be terribly embarrassing for her if I did call on her and she didn’t know the answer. I just didn’t want to put her in that position.”

developing a community health nursing intervention and evaluation plan for a community health problem

/in /by

as attached simple

Purpose

The purpose of this PowerPoint presentation is to provide an opportunity to develop a community health nursing intervention and evaluation plan for a community health problem that you identified in your community (described in Milestone 2: Vulnerable Population Assessment). You will apply the components of the nursing process to assist this vulnerable population and develop a proposal that could be presented to community leaders.

Course Outcomes

This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes.

CO1: Apply principles of nursing theory to the public health system by analyzing determinants of health and the public health intervention wheel. (PO 1)

CO3: Plan prevention and population-focused interventions for vulnerable populations using professional clinical judgment and evidence-based practice. (PO 4, 8)

CO4: Evaluate the delivery of care for individuals, families, aggregates, and communities based on theories and principles of nursing and related disciplines. (PO 1)

Scenario

You are a community public health nurse (C/PHN) working with the vulnerable population you identified in Milestone 2. You will choose a specific community health role that would serve this population. You have analyzed the data collected from your windshield survey and vulnerable population assignments (the first two milestones) and identified one community health problem that a nurse can impact. Now, review the scholarly literature or scholarly websites listed below and identify  one specific evidence-based nursing intervention that has the potential to improve the health of this group. Then develop a proposal to implement this intervention and a plan to evaluate the outcomes of this intervention. Create a PowerPoint that you could use to present to an organization in your community to request approval for funding and support for this intervention. (You are not required to implement the intervention or present your PowerPoint, though you may want to consider implementing your project in the future).

Directions

B. Identify an evidence based intervention: (average of 2-3 slides).
