Review the Resources and reflect on efforts to repeal/replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Consider who benefits the most when policy is developed and in the context of policy implementation.

POLITICS AND THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT

Regardless of political affiliation, individuals often grow concerned when considering perceived competing interests of government and their impact on topics of interest to them. The realm of healthcare is no different. Some people feel that local, state, and federal policies and legislation can be either helped or hindered by interests other than the benefit to society.

Consider for example that the number one job of a legislator is to be reelected. Cost can be measured in votes as well as dollars. Thus, it is important to consider the legislator’s perspective on either promoting or not promoting a certain initiative in the political landscape.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and reflect on efforts to repeal/replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
  • Consider who benefits the most when policy is developed and in the context of policy implementation.
  • Post an explanation for how you think the cost-benefit analysis in terms of legislators being reelected affected efforts to repeal/replace the ACA. Then, explain how analyses of the voters views may affect decisions by legislative leaders in recommending or positioning national policies (e.g., Congress’ decisions impacting Medicare or Medicaid). Remember, the number one job of a legislator is to be re-elected. Please check your discussion grading rubric to ensure your responses meet the criteria. especially the part about needing two resources. Suggested APA headings for the initial post: Cost for Legislators Repealing the ACA Legislators Decisions in National Policies.
  • Respond to at least two of your colleagues on two different days by expanding on their explanation and providing an example that supports their explanation or respectfully challenging their explanation and providing an example. Be sure to include 2 sources in each response post.

Do you believe the standards for admissibility of expert testimony, and testimony regarding the results of tests and analyses conducted of physical evidence espoused in the Frye and Daubert decisions are adequate to protect a defendant’s rights?

Wk 2 Reflection

After reviewing the PBS Frontline video(https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/real-csi/) do you believe the standards for admissibility of expert testimony, and testimony regarding the results of tests and analyses conducted of physical evidence espoused in the Frye and Daubert decisions are adequate to protect a defendant’s rights?

Be sure to briefly explain the Frye and Daubert standards and support why, or why not, you feel the standards are adequate.

Also, respond to the following questions/issues:

Should jurors be warned of the potential for bias or the potential for analyst error?
Should national standards for comparisons not firmly founded in science, i.e. fingerprints, questioned documents, toolmarks, etc., be established?
Should jurors be instructed to give greater weight to tests and comparisons with greater scientific bases (DNA v. fingerprint comparison)?
Using APA formatting (abstract not necessary) write a two (2) page paper addressing these questions and including other information you feel is relevant to the issues discussed in the film or other sources.

The back office staff includes eight medical assistants who assist with patient care as well as filing, answering calls from patients, processing laboratory results and taking prescription renewal requests from patients and pharmacies. Stephanie, a medical assistant, has worked in the practice for 10 years and is very proficient at her job. She knows almost every patient in the practice, and has an excellent rapport with all of the providers.

Mrs. Smith was seen today in the office for an annual physical. Her last appointment was a year ago for the same reason. During this visit, Mrs. Smith brought an empty bottle of amoxicillin with her and asked if she could have a refill. You noted the patient’s name on the label, and the date on the bottle was 1 week ago. You also noted your name printed on the label as the prescriber. The patient admitted that she called last week concerned about her cough and spoke to Stephanie. You do not recall having discussed this patient with Stephanie nor do the other providers in the practice.
