32 Specific Conditions

Decent Essays
I think the federal government should authorize a universal screening of the 32 specific conditions for all states. Although, I agree with the universal screening authorization of 32 screening for newborns. I believe the ultimate choice should be up to the parents rather they want the 32 or more tests done. I do not think the parents should have to suffer the heartache of knowing their child's disease could have been diagnosed earlier. All states like Georgia, Montana, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Virginia should be required to screen for the 32 specific conditions as the HRSA

    States have two years to spend each annual allotment before any excess funds are redistributed to states that have a financing shortfall—when projected CHIP expenditures exceed available funds to finance the program. States with a shortfall that have met an average enrollment target can also access funding from the Children’s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA) child enrollment contingency fund (National Academy for State Health Policy, 2014) . Why is federal CHIP financing a current issue? The Affordable Care Act (ACA) extended federal funding for CHIP allotments through federal fiscal year (FFY) 2015. Under current law, states will receive their final federal CHIP allotments in two semi-annual installments with the final…

    Emanual and Emanual have considered each model providing both positive and negatives, regarding the appropriate times to engage in the model. During emergency situations time is valuable, therefore the paternalistic model makes most sense, promoting health and wellbeing (76). I would agree, if I were the patient and it was between performing a surgery to keep me alive or help my health, the procedure should be done. The informative model provides the patient with complete decision-making, which many disagree with, as do I.…

    “Should children have to be vaccinated to attend school?” (Lemons, 2016, p. 185). This statement is the prescriptive issue that Jane Fullerton Lemons, writer for the 2008 CQ Researcher posits in her report on “Vaccine Controversies.” In order to get both sides of the issue, Lemons obtained a testimony from Amy Pisani, Executive Director of Every Child By Two, and a rebuttal from Barbra L. Fisher, President of National Vaccine Information Center. Initially, my thought was to side with Fisher, but with further reading I 've concluded that Pisani had the stronger argument, despite the weaknesses given throughout.…

    In the journal article Ethics and Childhood Vaccination Policy in the United States, the authors are trying to make the point that more people should focus on childhood immunization. They focus on it from an ethical point of view, as many parents are refusing to vaccinate their children for various reasons. The article is trying to convey the message that vaccinating your child is not only beneficial for the child itself but also for the good of the community and society. The ethical issue that illustrated here is if healthcare workers are willing to sacrifice the patient’s autonomy for the greater good of everyone else. Another issue that this article points out is that it is not easy to put forth a policy that requires all parents to vaccinate…

    Exclusionary rules are important and these rules still have an impact and influence in the judicial system and were created as a response to the ways police gathered their evidence. Police arrest and prosecutors charge those accused of crimes and the Bill of Rights or first ten amendments include the exclusionary rule. The exclusionary rule is what prohibits the prosecutor from using any evidence at all that was illegally obtained for a trial. One rule of exclusion is the proper identification of suspects and the defendant’s having the right to counsel during a police lineup. Another rule is Miranda rights which inform a suspect of their legal rights which protect them.…

    Over the past few years, there has been debate over vaccinating children. Many people believe the invalid study that was conducted by Andrew Wakefield in 1998 which linked vaccinations to autism. Others refuse to vaccinate because of toxins in vaccines. This movement against vaccination could potentially lead to a large scale outbreak of diseases that were once thought to be on the path to eradication. I believe that all school aged children should be required to be vaccinated.…
