Medicaid costs continue to be a significant burden on counties in NY State.

As an expert on Medicaid funding, you have been asked to write a report for Rensselaer County about their increasing Medicaid Costs.
Give a brief overview of how Medicaid works in New York and explain the causes of recent increases. Then suggest two ways they could attempt to reduce costs. This could include an explanation of policy changes they could lobby the state government to enact or examples of successful programs that have been used to reduce costs in other counties or states. Any recommendation you give must be supported by evidence of its benefit.

Healthcare system in the United States

e final paper should demonstrate an ability to synthesize concepts covered in the course and conclude with your thoughts on how to revise the current healthcare reform legislation to solve the problems of cost, access and quality. References must include:

Plus at least three articles from professional or academic journals, or .gov websites
Follow these instructions carefully. Your paper should summarize the current health care environment under ACA and its’ impact on:

2. Health care payers (government and insurers)
3. Employers
4. Cost, Access and Quality
5. Finally, conclude with your projections for the future of health care in America. Should ACA be repealed and replaced? Or, what are your recommendations for how it might be improved? Be specific by discussing which provisions should be sustained and which need to be revised, as well as how it will be financed.

Reflection 4: Complementary and Alternative Strategies and Experience here

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is defined as a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not generally considered part of conventional medicine. According to a survey by the National Institutes of Health, almost 40% of adults in the U.S. utilize some form of CAM. When prayer specifically for health is included as a CAM technique, the U.S. number rises to roughly 62%. Of note, the World Health Organization estimates 80% of the population in many developing countries rely on alternative medicine.

Discuss why you believe this approach is most equitable. For example, what will it do to create health equity? Consider this in terms of access and affordability as well as the long-term impacts of healthcare for life trajectories. What inequities will this approach resolve?

/in /by

Using the resources provided, resources from class on health care (e.g., other readings, the documentary Unnatural Causes: Place Matters), and considering your values about healthcare and equity, argue why you think one of these healthcare approaches is best.
1. In your paper, provide enough information about the approach you have chosen so that readers become knowledgeable about it.
2. Discuss why you believe this approach is most equitable. For example, what will it do to create health equity? Consider this in terms of access and affordability as well as the long-term impacts of healthcare for life trajectories. What inequities will this approach resolve?
3. Discuss the strengths and limitations/challenges of this approach and provide some ideas for how challenges could be addressed. For example, are challenges about public (mis) perceptions? If so, what can be done to overcome this? In your discussion of these pros and cons, be sure to present a synthesized argument. Do not simply parrot one of the readings.
4. Provide a brief conclusion to bring closure to your argument and paper.

Criteria

1. Correct identification of key concepts in the videos, websites, and chapter readings about health care approaches.
2. Demonstrated analytic ability.
3. The degree to which you articulate and support your argument for one of these approaches. Is evidence (research or policy-based evidence) presented to support your claim? Does your argument for a policy address context and/or mechanisms that have been established by research to influence child outcomes?
4. Quality of writing: Is the writing concise and well organized? Is there a logical flow to the analysis? Is there a brief opening and conclusion? Have all instructions been followed?
5. Grammar: Is the paper free of grammatical and/or typographical errors? Has it been adequately proofread?
6. APA style and citation: You must include APA citations in the text of your document and provide a corresponding reference list at the end of the paper. See resources provided in Canvas for this course, or the WSU Library for how to cite sources such as these.
