Economic Issues Simulation Paper Christi L. Baker HCS 440 March 5, 2012 Steven Miracle Abstract Castor Collins Health Plans, a regional health maintenance organization (HMO), in the state of Pantome provides HMO health insurance and health care services to enrollees through its statewide network of physicians and hospitals. E-Editors, a company with 1600 employees has asked Castor Collins to find an employee health insurance plan that accepts preexisting conditions at a maximum premium of
Economic Issues Simulation Paper Milagros García HCS/440 November 9th, 2011 Professor Larry Gonzales Health Care Plan Issues Today’s workplace has expanded with a variety of men and women working for different businesses throughout the United States. The increase of working men and women has brought successful businesses to thrive and meet company’s needs and goals. Employers offer hourly or salary wages to his or her employees and may also include benefits. Every business must
Economic Issues Simulation Paper HCS 440 – Economics: The Financing of Health Care Economic Issues Simulation Paper Health care system has evolved tremendously in the last few years, with many changes with the health care laws including but not limited to Universal Health Care, many individuals have choices when it comes to their coverage. According to healthcare.gov, in January of 2015, an employer with 50 or more full time employees will have to make an Employer Shared Responsibility
Economic Issues Simulation Paper HCS/440 January 23, 2012 Charles Sigmund Health care economics studies such issues as demand for medical care, pharmaceutical prices, competition among health care providers and insurers, and financing of health care services. Castor Collins has put together a plan which will help solve many issues facing the organization. The plan is built to maximize profit for the company and minimize the risk of poor choices provided to individuals who will
project also has a major economic impact on the local community and in a global context. In the local community, we are providing free software for CBU’s Nurse Practitioner professors and students to utilize. From prior research for developing our capstone project, we discovered that the hospital simulation software can range anywhere between four hundred dollars per individual to upwards of tens of thousands of dollars. The pricing of reliable and effective hospital simulation software makes for challenging
Modeling and simulation as a body of knowledge provide a basis to build and execute approximations of a real world system. Being termed as an efficient decision support system, modeling and simulation is able to understand and provide better solutions to the problems in various domains. It is also capable to predict and plan the future, mitigate risks, enhance the system performance and so on. Primarily, this modeling and simulation has emerged beyond manual methods of construction and execution
participated in the Camelot Simulation, where everyone is assigned a role to “act out” in a fictional city. To explain in greater detail, I will give a brief summary of the simulation and my participation in it, then I will analyze a major issue our city faced, and lastly, I will share what I learned about urban politics and policy through this exercise. Like I previously mentioned, in the Camelot
Curriculum Philosophy Paper Patrice Bax HRWD 6713: Curriculum Design Submitted: October 6, 2012 In mathematics, there is a rule called the order of operations which instructs a student to solve certain steps first, before calculating others steps to arrive at an accurate solution to a mathematical expression. Similarly, society teaches an order of operations to life in that students are to first, matriculate through secondary education to attain
13-unit and 15-units are used as case studies with incremental fuel cost functions. The constraints include ramp rate limits, prohibited operating zones and the valve point effect. These constraints make the economic dispatch (ED) problem a non-convex minimization problem with constraints. Simulation results obtained by the proposed algorithm are compared with the results obtained using other methods available in the literature. Based on the numerical results, the proposed RTO algorithm is able to provide
