The market domain that I am most interested in is the healthcare industry. I will be researching the Community Health Center Inc. (CHC) located in Connecticut. CHC has 14 different primary care sites that cater to the uninsured and underinsured. The company was founded over 40 years ago, so there will be plenty of information to research because it has evolved through the years. For the research, I will be obtaining information directly from the company’s website and I will utilize the shapiro library. Located below are five sources that I will use for the final paper.

Source 1:

Community Health Center Inc. (2019, May). Your Healthcare Home. Retrieved from https://www.chc1.com/

This source is the company’s direct website. On the website it provided the different types of services CHC offers. It also included information about the company’s history, mission, and goals.

Source 2:

Rmuse. (2016). Why Americans Can't Have Universal Healthcare Like Europeans. Politicususa.

This source is an article that discusses the universal healthcare system in European countries. I will be able to use this information to compare the type of healthcare CHC provides to the healthcare that is provided in other countries.

Source 3:

Medicaid. (2016, November). Program History. Retrieved from Medicaid.gov: https://www.medicaid.gov/about-us/program-history/index.html

Since CHC provides healthcare to the uninsured and underinsured, I will be able to utilize the Medicaid website to explain what it consists of and how it pertains to patients at CHC.

Source 4:

Mutual, M. (2016, November). Employer Health Insurance Versus Individual Plans. Retrieved from Medical Mutual: https://www.medmutual.com/For-Individuals-and-Families/Health-Insurance-Education/Health-Insurance-Basics/Employer-vs-Individual-Health-Insurance.aspx

This source is a website called Medical Mutual. I will be able to use this source to discuss how individuals in the U.S. obtain health insurance. CHC offers a service catted access to care, so with this information I will be able to better explain how access to care works. Medical mutual also explains the difference between obtaining insurance from an employee and having individual insurance.

Source 5:

Understanding the U.S. Healthcare System. (2016, November). Retrieved from Interexchange: http://www.interexchang.org/articles/abroad/2015/08/10/understanding-us-healthcare-system/

This source is a report from a website. This report provides information about the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. This information is relevant to CHC because most of the patients that attend CHC have insurance through the ACA.
