According to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), about 81% of medical school grads are walking away with an average medical school debt of $183,000. Because of the high incomes physicians make, many people (new medical school graduates included) think that their loan repayment is something they can easily handle. However with ever increasing costs and significant declines in physician reimbursements from Medicare and Medicaid, some doctors are finding trouble paying off loans without accruing tons of interest. Physicians still accepting Medicare and Medicaid patients are expected to see reimbursement rates drop as much as 21 and 43 percent, respectively.…
Nurse practitioner reimbursement is a complex configuration that includes regulatory factors both at the state and federal levels. As late as 1990, direct Advanced Practice Registered Nurse’s (APRN) reimbursement by Medicare was available only in rural areas and skilled nursing facilities (1). In 1997, President Clinton instituted the Balance Budget Act that expanded the reimbursement for APRN’s to all geographical and clinical settings allowing the direct Medicare reimbursement to NP’s, but at 85% of the physician reimbursement rate (2). Although the expansion of nurse practitioners scope of practice was intended to meet the needs of a shortage of family physicians, it has left gaps in care for many of the most defenseless populations.…
For this plan when someone signs up they can choose from different plans.

Introduction The goals of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) has propelled all primary care practices into new and uncharted territory. To meet the primary goals of the ACA, primary care physicians would play a pivotal role in improving the health of Americans and lowering the costs of the health care they receive. The legislation plans to accomplish this by moving from fee-for-service to value-based reimbursement. The value of the value-based reimbursement is based on improving the quality of care as demonstrated by improved quality measures.…
As discussed in the previous assignment, the issue that has been examined is major decreases in Medicaid reimbursement. This posed challenges in the way that Boston Medical Center (BMC) surgical department delivers efficient care, specifically dealing with patients’ needs. Applying the SWOT analysis tool is significant for BMC’s surgery department to reduce costs and provide quality care.

The article I have chosen is the Legal Challenges to Managed Care Cost Containment Programs: An Initial Assessment by the Health Affairs (Jacobson, 1999). It was written to provide an assessment of how costs have ruled in litigation affecting managed care cost containment initiatives. The recent changes in the health care delivery system, especially the cost containment initiatives introduced by managed care organizations (MCOs), depends largely on whether these efforts can lower health costs without reducing quality the of care (Jacobson, 1999).…

As a big multinational company, the Bosch Group owns the diversification throughout various divisions and business units that make the company different in terms of their return on sales and employment of funds. Hence, any analysis of profitability and attractiveness based solely on the return on sales is inadequate. That is the reason the company applies a value-based management concept with OVC (Operating Value Contribution) serving as the key performance indicator. OVC measures whether the company and its divisions/business units earn the cost of the invested capital in addition to other costs. The capital charges are therefore the core element this concept.…
