Independent Health Case Study

Decent Essays
I am excited to be working for Independent Health. I believe this position will be both rewarding and challenging since it is my ideal position. I am glad you offered me the position and I am confident I will be an asset to your organization. I am excited to start contributing to the Actuarial and underwriting department after graduation.

I had some more addition questions regarding benefits. I am sorry for all the questions, this is all new to me and want to make sure I am aware and have a full understanding of the benefits and compensation that Independent Health has to offer. I understand that within the first year of working there is no compensation for study hours, material, or exam cost. However, if I do take an exam and pass, would it is reasonable to ask for reimbursement of the exam total cost? Also with that said, I figured it be worth asking since I will be signing my contact this week, would I be able to get reimbursement for the exam I am taking next week?

    I believe that Sutter Health should create a custom application for their practice. Although all the facilities were not affected by the outage, I think that a custom application will be most beneficial. All facilities should have access to the same information so that if they system went down at one location, they can call another place and retrieve the necessary patient information or have the ability to log in remotely to retrieve the data. If this type of application were in place, the patients would not have been aware of the system failure, and it would have been business as usual. A custom application with more than one mode to access information would have saved the organization a billion dollar which is an enormous amount of money…

    Ethical Theories- Patient Autonomy Patient autonomy is the right of patients to make decisions regarding their medical care, without the exertion of any undue external influence (Cowley).
