Health Policy Data

One of the foremost concerns in health care policy today is the rising costs of care. Acumen works on several projects that aim to develop and evaluate payment policy reforms with the ultimate goal of lowering health care costs. As a first step for this kind of work, we must understand the drivers of rising health care costs.
In this exercise, you will use historical Medicare data to analyze trends in the costs of inpatient hospitalizations over time. You have been provided with an excerpt from the 2013 Medicare and Medicaid Statistical Supplement to use as a primary resource. No additional references are required; however, some basic background research may help in interpreting this data. Do not worry about adjusting for inflation.
Prompt:
Investigate trends in the number of inpatient discharges and the amount of inpatient payments financed by Medicare from 1994 to 2012. Compare these trends between two types of beneficiary entitlement categories—aged and disabled—and consider the implications that these trends may have on developing future cost-containment strategies.
In your analysis, please make sure to incorporate calculations that support your argument,
including at least the following calculations:
●The percentage change in inpatient payments (total, per discharge, and per day) from
1994 to 2012, for aged and disabled beneficiaries.
●The percentage change in the number of annual inpatient discharges from 1994 to 2012,
for aged and disabled beneficiaries.
●The percentage of all inpatient payments expended for each entitlement type, in 1994 and
in 2012.
Explain your findings in a brief memo that you would deliver to a professional client. Assume that this client is knowledgeable about Medicare and health care policy but has not studied the results of the Statistical Supplement. Organize your findings into clear and informative summary tables or charts that supplement your written conclusions. These may be integrated into the body of your memo or included as an appendix.

My Business/academic experience- I used to help my dad run a small business in Africa before I left to come pursue my undergrad here , which I helped transform into a successful business and thats one thing I will forever be proud of. My grades in university are not the best due to different circumstances that took place in my life coming here alone as a 15 year old kid from Africa with no one to look after me but myself. The school require a grade of a cumulative weighted average of at least a 70% (USask grade system equivalent) in the last two years of study (i.e. 60 credit units) I finished my undergrad with a 72% average but since they will be calculating just the last two years I am not sure if my grade in my last two years will be at least a 70%. All I am saying is that my grade should not be the reason they should accept me but rather my other achievement in life and my impact in the society and my zeal and determination to successful in the real world as I look to learn from MBA program and also impact the community in the best way I can. A statement that should be mind blowing and make the admission council see beyond just my grades. I can send a copy of my transcript or any additional information that will help the writer.
