What Internet business model would be appropriate for the company to follow in creating a Web site and why? In what ways can the business benefit from a Web site? 

Select 1 business that does not already have a Web site, and develop an Internet strategy for it. Most large corporations already have Web sites, so you may have to think of something on a smaller scale such as a local bike store. Sole proprietorship businesses that provide services like car repair, house cleaning, tax preparation, and that use the Internet and similar services are also good options. Consider and describe how the business that you select can use social media to achieve its objectives. Use the Internet and the library to research and analyze markets and competitors.
After selecting a business, answer the following questions:
What Internet business model would be appropriate for the company to follow in creating a Web site and why? In what ways can the business benefit from a Web site? What functions should it perform for the company (e.g., marketing, sales, customer support, internal communications, etc.)? In what other ways might the company use the Internet for its own benefit? Prepare functional specifications for the company’s use of the Web and the Internet. Include links to and from other sites in your design. Prepare a list of technological specifications for implementation (e.g., what hardware and software are necessary to support your design)

Discuss the analytic and emergent models of strategic management. Why are both models important for healthcare organizations today?

Question 1
You have just been appointed director of development and planning for a250-bed community hospital in the Midwest. It is has been five years since your organization conducted a full strategic planning process, and it shows that your facility is behind the times. You have your work cut out for you, but how will you begin? What do you see that has to be done to initiate the strategic planning process for your hospital to catch up with the advancement of healthcare in America? Why?

Question 2
Discuss the analytic and emergent models of strategic management. Why are both models important for healthcare organizations today?

Question 3
Strategic management exists at all levels of the healthcare organization. Explain how strategic thinking maps apply to the different levels of strategy within a healthcare organization.

Question 4
You have just been named CEO of a community hospital in a town of 50,000people on the West Coast. You are replacing a CEO who had served in the position for 24 years. When you meet him during his last week on duty, he offers this observation: “My advice is stay in your office, keep the door shut and let the assistant administrators take care of all the complaints and stupid ideas out there. This town never appreciated having a hospital, and they don’t support it. I just hope it survives so you have a job running it.” It has been a long time since the hospital reached out to the community for feedback and recommendations and a long time since the word “stakeholder” was even spoken here.
How will you approach your new position based on this? How will you handle making a difference? Explain.

Question 5
You have just been named director of marketing for a community hospital in a town of 500,000 people on the East Coast.

You definitely need to conduct a competitor analysis right away, but how will you proceed with that? Explain what key factors and forces you will consider as you analyze your competitors.

Question 6
You have just been named director of emergency medical services for a hospital-based emergency medical services (EMS) program. Your program is housed in a 250-bed acute care hospital in a town of 35,000 people. You are employed by the hospital itself, reporting to the chief executive officer (CEO). Formal strategic planning has never been done for the EMS program before, and the physician medical director is not very involved at this time.
How will you proceed to prepare a strategic plan for this program? What steps will you take, and who will you involve in the process? Explain.

Evaluate at least five types of costs associated with developing these applications (the consumer and provider mobile applications for THS) based on both the in-house and purchased software development options discussed in your text.

In your paper, you will develop business process modeling (BPM) diagrams and use case tables as illustrated in your textbook. By developing BPM diagrams and use case tables, you become more familiar with the type of end user requirements needed in the two mobile applications that you are focusing on for your final project: the consumer and provider mobile applications for THS. You will analyze and discuss the content of your BPM diagrams, use case tables, and evaluate strategies for developing these mobile applications.
In your paper,
• Must include an introduction and conclusion paragraph. Your introduction paragraph needs to end with a clear thesis statement that indicates the purpose of your paper.
• Develop two required BPM diagrams:
o One for the THS providers (such as doctors, nurse practitioners) showing existing and planned use of the mobile platform for reviewing patient/consumer clinical results.
o One for the THS providers showing existing and planned use of the mobile platform for placing test orders to treat patient/consumers.
• Develop three separate use case tables for each of the BPM diagrams that you developed in this week’s discussion and assignment:
o One for the THS providers (such as doctors, nurse practitioners) showing existing and planned use of the mobile platform for reviewing patient/consumer clinical results.
o One for THS providers showing existing use of the mobile platform for placing test orders to treat patient/consumers.
o One for THS providers showing planned use of the mobile platform for placing test orders to treat patient/consumers
• Articulate the content of both the BPM diagrams and use case tables for both consumers and providers in detail.
• Analyze two different scholarly papers that address mobile consumer applications in the health industry and mobile applications used by providers in the health industry.
o The two scholarly papers that you analyze must be researched and may not include resources in the course.
• Discuss your proposed end user requirements illustrated in your BPM diagrams and use cases for the consumer mobile application for THS.
• Discuss your proposed end user requirements illustrated in your BPM diagrams and use cases for the provider mobile application for THS.
• Evaluate at least five types of costs associated with developing these applications (the consumer and provider mobile applications for THS) based on both the in-house and purchased software development options discussed in your text.
