National policy is trying to shift to paying for "quality of care" rather than quantity of care (or the fee-for-service model). In this week's discussion, discuss barriers to implementing a policy of focusing on "quality" rather than "quantity." What will be difficult in moving away from "fee-for-service" type care?
Discussion Guidelines and Suggestions
Discussions are an important part of interaction and learning in the online environment.
The forum questions do not have right or wrong answers, but are designed to encourage dialogue among classmates and to hear different views.
Keep your posts to 250 words.
Conversations, rather than long discussion posts, will help to solidify the information you are learning.
Posts of 1000 words or more, encourage students to not have the time or energy to comment on more than one other student's post.
Your discussion posts should draw from the reading materials, outside sources, and your own experience.
If you cite material, make sure to include a citation.
When responding to your peer's comments, make sure your feedback has substance and is related to the reading and lectures.
Instructors will read all discussion threads and students are expected to do the same.
Instructors will join the discussion periodically, sometimes to ask a question that might take the discussion in a different direction or to a deeper level.
