Final Project Healthcare Administration

Four Parts

Part I: Detailed Report for Western Hospital’s Board of Directors and CEO:

Read the case study documents provided. Based on this information create a 15- to 20-page report in which you build a strategic plan and business plan for the Center for Diabetes Care, which extends the reach of Western Hospital and promotes positive health outcomes. This report will be distributed to board members and the CEO prior to the presentation, and a grant proposal will be prepared based on the material in the report. The report should include text, charts, graphics, and financial data. Provide references and sources. The report must include:

· Executive Summary

· Explanation of how the goals of the Center for Diabetes Care align with the goals of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), Healthy People 2020, and the Institutes of Medicine (IOM) aims for quality care

· Recommendation for the establishment of the Center for Diabetes Care, which takes into consideration the perspectives of internal and external stakeholders—including accrediting bodies

· An explanation of how the Center for Diabetes Care fits within the continuum of care for Western Hospital

· Strategic Plan

· Vision, mission, and values statements for the Center for Diabetes Care

· SWOT analysis listing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to opening the Center for Diabetes Care

· Strategies for launching and operationalizing the Center for Diabetes Care

· Long- and short-term goals for the Center for Diabetes Care

· Business Plan

· Implementation timeline for key activities

· Analysis of financial data for the Center for Diabetes Care, including a chart summarizing the financial data

Part II: Business Case Presentation to Western Hospital’s Board of Directors and CEO

Summarize the business case for the Center for Diabetes Care in a 5- to 10-minute oral presentation to the board of directors using voice-over PowerPoint. The oral presentation should include a 10- to 12-slide presentation in which text, charts, graphics, and financial data are presented. The presentation should also provide references and sources. As you develop the presentation, consider the information that your audience will need to know to make a decision on whether to approve Dr. Novak’s application for the grant. This information would include how the Center for Diabetes Care would:

· Address unmet needs of the community that Western Hospital serves.

· Improve health outcomes for the community, which will lead to positive social change.

· Be structured to ensure cultural competency with the patient population.

· Generate enough revenue so that it becomes financially self-sustaining by its third year in operation.

· Measure the success of the project.

Part III: Managing Risks for the Center for Diabetes Care

You have impressed Dr. Novak with your business and healthcare acumen. He’s asked about risks that you have identified as you have created the business plan, strategic plan, and business case for the Center for Diabetes Care. Write a 2 page report for him explaining, in detail, the risks or concerns you have identified and potential strategies for managing those risks.
