Even though within the Managed care trends there have been many rapid transformations throughout the years with the HIPAA laws enforcements throughout health care facilities within the United States and Obamacare. Currently, there are challenges ahead with the healthcare reform due to the new presidency stirring up changes with health insurance and getting rid of Obamacare. Throughout the managed care trends chronic condition management have affected two-thirds of the baby boomer’s generation causing them to have chronic health conditions that them to receive medical treatment constantly with elevated health care cost.

Nurse leaders play a vital role in establishing standards and leading organizational change. The effects of the Affordable care Act (ACA) on the healthcare industry is characterized by change (Delmatoff & Lazarus, 2014). Given this ACA paradigm transformation, I believe today’s nursing leaders must adapt quickly and assist new leaders to develop the skills necessary to envision and evaluate new healthcare delivery systems. According to Chism (2009), the roles of the doctor of nursing practice (DNP) prepared nurse graduates may be incorporated to meet the transformation of today’s contemporary healthcare. After reading the assigned material, I gained confidence that the DNP program will prepare me for eligible leadership roles within the healthcare industry.

In response to the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (Reconciliation Act), collectively referred to as healthcare reform” (); Wishard-Eskenazi Health of Indianapolis, Indiana has begun to make milestone changes to meet the requirements of the healthcare reform. Being a leader in today’s technology which began thirty years ago with development of one of the nation’s first electronic medical record and continues to excel in the healthcare informatics technology today continues to use this technology in quality improvement initiatives, support for future technology research and improving the quality care of the patient.

The health care sector is impacted by numerous changes and challenges, such as increasing need for health care provision, changing demands from patients or rapidly evolving technologies. In the context of evolving technologies, the developments occur not only in the actual provision of the medical act, but also at the level of the complementary operations, such as health care information management.

In my view The Patients’ Choice Act that was introduced by Paul Ryan in 2009 would have been a better choice for the new health care reform than The Affordable Care Act. Even though there is no health care crisis of the uninsured, Ryan’s plan involved incentives for prevented care that could lower cost of premiums and encourage healthier lifestyles. Under The Patients’ Choice Act, the American people retain their freedom whether to have health care or not; however the ACA has a personal mandate that requires individuals to carry health care insurance or face a fine (tax). Ryan’s plan would have ensure universal affordable health care for all Americans without increasing government spending.

The purpose of this report is to clarify how to account for a more than 2% shareholder S Corporation Owners’ Health insurance from a payroll perspective, in light of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace reforms. Additionally, for the small business S corporation; is it possible to assist employee’s with health insurance premiums without running afoul of marketplace reforms? The internet is rampant with conflicting advice on these seemingly simple questions. The most recent guidance from the IRS (notice 2015-17) is more of a reprieve on penalties, rather than guidance. Additionally, the June 30, 2015 deadline for reprieves has passed; which has accountants and taxpayers waiting for additional “guidance” while sorting out

It has only been within the last five years that health information management (HIM) has experienced exponential changes, due to the healthcare reform. The electronic health record (EHR) is connected to health information exchanges and other systems of interoperability. The timely completion of charts, coding and release of information (ROI) has become much more efficient with the electronic record. Traditional HIM functions will just be transformed and will always be an integral part of successful patient care. Professionals must be flexible and willing to adapt and even generate change. As Health Information Technology continues to evolve, so will the roles

The Patients’ Choice Act gives the American people opportunity to choose the health care plan that meets the individual health needs. The Obama administration under the Democratic Party felt the need for a different health care reform, The Affordable Care Act (ACA). To justify this health care reform the Democratic Party implied that the health care crisis in the United States is caused by the uninsured and that everyone had a right to health care. Under the Patients’ Choice Act, the American people retain their freedom whether to have health care or not, however the ACA has a personal mandate that requires individuals to buy or carry health care insurance or face a fine (tax).

Health care spending across the nation has increased exponentially. In response and attempt for resolution, the government looked to health information technology (HIT). Research suggests, the rising expenditures of health care was due to high-cost advanced technology and prescription drugs, redundant tests and procedures, and inefficient healthcare administration (Yaraghi, 2014). The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009 and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010 was implemented to enhance overall health care quality, efficiency, and safety, increase access, decrease health care costs, and to provide a platform for the private exchange of health information electronically (“Health IT”, 2016). The

Employer based health insurance has received much criticism and its existence is in jeopardy as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) changes the healthcare industry. Penalties enacted by the ACA may cause businesses to reevaluate their standing on providing insurance coverage. However, evidence shown by Klein (2013) and Radnofsy (2012) give way to thinking that large business may not change their policies on providing insurance coverage. Moore (2013) and Pear (2010) show how small to mid-sized businesses may be influenced to drop the benefit, as it may not be in their economic interest. However, this is the area that needs assistance because they are the ones suffering from the insurance gap. The Census Bureau (2013) and Garfield, Damico, Stephens & Rouhani (2014) provide reports of how lower-income families and employees of small businesses very often find themselves without access to healthcare. Discussed are the advantages and disadvantages of employer-based health insurance. Evaluating the current position of employer-base health insurance and the pros and cons to its implementation will help determine how necessary it is for the United States.

People who are not covered by health insurance in the United States are termed as uninsured and it is a primary concern to the health care sector. According to the Census Bureau carried in 2012, more than 40 million people in America were uninsured with the number of uninsured children being 6.6 million. However the number of uninsured has dropped from 2016 due to expansion in Medicaid eligibility and the establishment of health insurance exchanges after the patient protection and affordable (Obamacare) care act was passed. As of July 2014, Commonwealth Fund reported additional 9.5 had enrolled to health insurance which includes about 5% of the working population. Although the rate of the uninsured adults has dropped there still exists a big number of people who need to be insured.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), signed into law on March 23, 2010, represent a landmark in the U.S. health policy.1 The ACA is the most comprehensive reform experienced by the U.S. health system. The individual insurance market has been transformed by this reform which mandates residents to have health insurance, expands public insurance and reduces the cost of private insurance plan and reduces and reorganizes spending under the nation’s largest health insurance plan, Medicare.2 Persistent challenges relating to access, affordability and quality of care in the U.S. health care system has been resolved by the ACA.3

Due to the fact our industry deals with medical supplies, the healthcare sector, as a whole, tends to be our main focus area. Health care is traditionally funded through contributions paid by individuals as a percentage of their salaried income. There are, however, some countries that also provide a free public medical service funded by a national budget. Regardless of the coverage it is the quality of the medical supplies and medical personnel when dealing with preventive and corrective medicine that is determined by the below mentioned macroeconomic indicators:1
