CDHPs

A new type of third-party-reimbursement healthcare payment plan is emerging in the United States. CDHPs strive to control costs and improve quality of care by requiring consumers to take control of their own healthcare decisions. Consumers decide how they want to spend their healthcare dollars, depending on what is important to them. CDHPs are geared to encourage participants to enroll in some type of wellness program and improve their lifestyles. Specific types of CDHPs are health reimbursement accounts (HRA), flexible spending accounts (FSA), and health savings accounts (HSA).

However, there are concerns about CDHPs. The consumer may neither understand nor have the education and the tools to manage his or her own healthcare appropriately. This may have long-term ramifications on the whole healthcare system and whether CDHPs can be successful for the consumer, the employer, the physician, and the healthcare facilities, as well as the insurers. Answer the following questions in regard to this development:

• Are CDHPs more geared toward the healthier and younger population?
• Are they effective for patients with chronic illnesses?
• Will they discourage the use of preventative care and cause increased healthcare costs in the future?

After examining the above questions in your analysis, work around the following instructions and create a 8- to 10-page Microsft Word document:

• Summarize the history of when, how, and why CDHPs were developed.
• Explain HSA, HRA, and FSA with examples.
• Examine different segments of the population. Describe which socioeconomic group is likely to benefit the most from CDHPs.
• Explain the types of incentives to providers for efficiency in the delivery of healthcare services. Explain who bears the financial risk—the provider, the patient, or the CDHP.
• Offer your recommendations for patients considering a CDHP, including which types are appropriate for which patients. Include your recommendations for each, to accept or decline, and also include your rationale behind such recommendations.

Support your responses with examples.

Cite any sources in APA format.

I need some help with a Wall Street Analysis

You are required to read and analyze a recent article from The Wall Street Journal, each covering a different topic addressed in the course. You will then write a review of the article that is at least 300 words and in current APA format.

Access The Wall Street Journal either through the Jerry Falwell Library or through a personal subscription. Each unit will have a different list of topics to choose from.

Module/Week 5 Topic Choices:

Federal budget deficits

Mandatory government spending

Effects of the federal debt on the economy

Laffer curve

Crowding out

Automatic stabilizers

Expansionary fiscal policy

Make sure to select an article (300 words or more) that addresses all of the needed information below. Short articles will often not provide you with enough detail to write about. In addition, purely statistical releases of data are not wise selections either. The article must be no older than 2014. For your chosen article, do the following:

1. On the top of the page, provide the article citation in current APA format.
2. On the next line down, type the topic of your articles (from the list above) in all caps and bold format.
3. In a double-spaced document, briefly explain the author’s purpose for writing the article. One way to understand the author’s purpose is to ask yourself why he or she wrote it. (For example, consider current and future events, politics, or anything else that may have inspired the article.)
4. Summarize the article, focusing on the discussion of the topic the article addresses. Incorporate relevant economic theory that is present so that discussion of the article content is clear.
