for DR. SAMULESON ONLY!!!!!

Week#4-HPA

Discussion:

Seavey, Aytur, and McGrath make an interesting and somewhat bold statement regarding the basis of our health care system. Seavey, Aytur, & McGrath (2014, pg. 7), suggest “Health policy analysis is a type of applied research. Although one might think that our health care system is evidence based and dependent on what research demonstrates to be valuable, that is not always the case. In fact, it is not usually the case.” This seems to be contrary to what is suggested by McLaughlin, as we discussed during Week One. After reviewing and considering both perspectives, which do you believe to be a true statement? Provide at least one supporting source (besides the text) to defend your position.

Written Assignment:

Week 4 Exercise – Policy Process Activity: Using the example on pg. 3 in the Seavey, Aytur, and McGrath text as a guide, develop a policy wheel diagram, relative to the area chosen as the focus of your policy and procedure research paper. Provide an example of how each area will be measured within the wheel.

Research Paper Reference List:

Please submit your reference list for your health policy research paper. The focus of your research should be centered around policies and procedures involved with your selected topic.

Use 12 point font, Times New Roman, A.P.A. format and correct spelling and grammar. You will submit your final research paper in a Word document in Week 7.
