Types of healthcare organizations HW
You were asked to choose a quality-improvement standard within health care to
discuss. This standard could be related to credentialing, patient safety,
utilization management services, home health care, or long-term care. Prepare
a PowerPoint presentation of 6 slides and Speaker notes: min 75 words that will display the following
information
Define and explain the quality process you chose.
Define descriptive versus inferential statistics. If you
were to survey your members, describe the form of the 4 levels of measurement
that would be suited for your task (i.e. nominal, interval, ordinal, and
ratio).
Identify the purpose of the measure.
Illustrate how patients or members have benefited or will benefit from the
process.
Identify which types of healthcare organizations are impacted by the
standard.
Based on your knowledge of the standard being discussed, provide 1–3 changes
that you might recommend. If you do not have any recommendations, then provide
your reasons for not having a recommendation.
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
