Assignment: Identification of Healthcare Policy Concern

Assignment: Identification of Healthcare Policy Concern

Assignment: Identification of Healthcare Policy Concern

Purpose

In this course, the students will have the opportunity to identify a healthcare policy concern and community healthcare concern which can be improved with a change in policy, ordinance or the language in existing law. The outcome would be the potential for improved health for a population group.  Students will present a proposed solution or change to an elected official, and provide an analysis of the project.  While  students are not responsible for ensuring the implementation of their identified solution to the healthcare policy concern, the student is required to meet with an elected official to present the concern and proposed resolution.  The purpose of this current assignment is to identify the community-based healthcare policy concern and provide an extensive evidenced-based foundation for proposing a policy change to an elected official.
